Hi Guys,

Haven't posted screenshots in a while, so thought I would post a couple from my recent flight to Port Hedland....purely for the fact the weather was forecast to be terrible with 2000meters vis (2km for those who can't convert :P ) overcast at 700ft! yikes VOR app gonna be hard, and to top it off a 24ktG38kt x wind just to spice things up.

Now sometimes the forcast and what actually appears in Flight Sim differ and this is a prime example, no problem with visibility once I got there, but still a nice x wind.

On decent from FL350 to 3000ft.

Doesn't show so well, but crabbing for the nice x wind.

I'll post some more from my return flight tonight, enjoy.

To answer the questions:

Port Hedland is just South of Broome.

The model is the Jet City Aircraft Boeing 717-200 Base pack, from avsim I think, just download repaints for it.
