Hello!

Posts: 283

Still installing all the old FSX stuff on this new OS...

...took a relatively short hop from Stockholm to Hannover. Its a real route flown by Air Berlin 737's, but I don't have a 737 that's more complex than a can opener, so this will have to do.

At the gate in Stockholm...

Starting to taxi...

The autopilot on this bird is VERY VERY aggressive...

Boring flight, overcast conditions everywhere...

The AP logic is disgraceful on this aircraft. 1.8 miles out, and it can't seem to track that magenta line...

On the ground at Hannover, ended up switching off the AP 3/4 miles out and landing the bird the old fashioned way.

Taxing to the gate...

Brakes set, and chocks in...

Some very nice shots here, though I would have cropped the first 3 a bit, to get rid of all that black in the foreground. Give it a try, you'll like the effect.

I like all of them, esp the 4th and 5th shots for the angle and lighting.

I know its just my screen, or me still a little drugged up on cold meds.... but it looks like in the 3rd pic it says Boeing 767. Grin

Great looking shots, and yes, some cropping would really make these shots pop!

Haha I totally agree. Nice shots nonetheless!

Captain Sim's aircraft are like the reality show girls you see on MTV, beautiful on the outside but a different story in the brain.... Lips Sealed

I can't say I'm disappointed...

...but that's probably because I got it for only 15 bucks. Tongue

I still don't particularly care for tubes, at least flying them, but these are very nice shots. And #2 is my all time favorite (favourite Paul?) angle for a tube on the ground and sometimes in the air as well. Very nice.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.
