Hey guys! (and gals  Wink) I have been wanted to post this for a while but I wasn't sure if anyone would reply  Roll Eyes Anyway, I think it would be interesting if people would tell us their current location in FS (Airport, City, whatever). So it's kinda like a poll in a way. Currently I am at Orofino Municipal in Orofino, Idaho. Next flight will be back home  Grin

I just finished flying from Heathrow to Manchester in the default 737. The weather at EGCC was great, with no clouds below 20,000ft. Next flight will probably be from Manchester to my local airport of Aldergrove, EGAA.

KFLL - Fort Lauderdale, Florida.  20 miles south of my real life home.

The primary runways are 94 and 274, only 4 deg from East/West.  The VOR range is over 100 miles and the DME for the ILS is over 20 miles.

After I land I hop over to the beach for a Pina Colada and check out the babes.

The first round is on me.  If you're sober after happy hour we can hop down to KEYW (Key West) - about 1/2 hour SW.  I warn you, the beer is cheap but there's there's no ILS.

How about a quick buzz over South Beach & Bayside then direct to KEYW?  8)  Grin

They're on they way.  Look for American Airlines Arena (you can't miss the AA on the roof) - that's Bayside, and S. Beach is only 10 mi S.  Then it's beaches and alligators.   Nothing south of Miami until the Keys.

With the flightsim, I always fly from where I left off. If I want to explore an area, I fly to it, even if it's on the other side of the world.

I've mostly been flying in Alaska for the last year, rarely leaving the region. Today, I flew down from Coldfoot to Fairbanks

while most of you are in south florida I like KDAB esp. at spring break. KDAB is Daytona Beach You can even land a 747 there That is just a short hop from my Base were I worked at for 4 years KJAX Jacksonville International runways 7 and 25 are 10,000 feet long even the concorde landed there once and it is not unusual to spot a antov 222 there from time to time.

I'm trying to fly an Air Canada 747-400 from Lima, Peru (SPIM) to Honolulu, Hawaii. (PHNL). I'm having some throttle problems, so my mechanics (presumably Simviation folks) are looking at my engines and stuff. I've just been jetting along, and a friend of mine is acting as my virtual flight attendant! It's sure fun!

Yeah I do the same thing. Also I make up a flight plan and write out the places where I want to go for the next two months or so and just go from there, taking off from where I left off. I finished my last flight plan a couple of days ago so now I'm really just freely flying around. I plan to take a cross country trip in the Mooney Bravo then after that if I manage to get some screenshots on here, would take a trip to Eastern/Southern Africa and go on an adventure  Grin
