Not NZ: FlyTampa Athens

[Charl]

Another brilliant scenery... buttersmooth, and beautiful

[Ian Warren]

I like that , 'buttersmooth, and beautiful' , Come on Charl , you collect European airports for FS9 like i collect aircraft , be interesting to see your Europe,s guess also covers the UK collection on a little map off the area

Looks really good that's going on my "wish list" - I haven't much exploring of the Adriatic and Fly Tampa do very good sceneries. Enough reason I think.

Funny that... I defend this on the grounds that it has broadened my education.



I'd love to know what aircraft you DON'T have, then!

[Ian Warren]

Blimey heck , i,m each one off those , no point going on another big big OE , you virtually have done it already , I have told don't leave home till i,ve done the country , that is some impressive coverage

I don't really have any GA , real time is but on the PC as you said ' broadened my education' example this latest 737 PMDG is ... well it been asked before the old question , do you think you could fly a real one , after few hours few years back in Flight Experience to this latest sim , i sure as hell like to try it out .

[Charl]

Well the first time I went up in a glider introductory flight (several years after FS bit), the instructor was a bit suspicious about my apparent innocence and let me have it until finals.
There's more to it than yank 'n bank of course, and RW pilots do earn their keep.
Landing the 737? it's what checklists are about, mon.

Back on topic for a moment: this scenery, like all the best ones, is for both FS9 and FSX.
Interestingly, George Grimshaw reckoned it took no more than a few days to compile the FS9 version.
Good news for us FS9'ers, who as you can see above, are not about to let go!

Now that definately makes me interested, if its for both FS9 and FSX !
I may build stuff for FSX these days, but most of my flying is still done in FS9,........... a personal preferece, seeing as how my FS9 install
has had many, many years of of customization with payware addons all over the world,....... cant let go of it.
As usual Charl,............ superb screenies.......... Thanks for sharing with us.

Cheers Lawrie, and they still keep coming!

Now then, I have a clip which gives an idea of the airport scenery.
It is long, and slow, so only airport spotters should attend!
I was in two minds whether to upload it... Fraps or something created jitters which quite simply are not there in the scenery.
It may be some Java activity in the background, I notice.
Anyhow:

[Ian Warren]

Like any good tree hugger i tied myself to the boundary fence , Gorrrrr look at that

[Charl]

Some may have thought it was a slight misjudgement in final approach:

Never took you for the tree hugging variety, Ian...

[Ian Warren]

Charl ... your spose to cut a large hole in the tree trunk so as to watch the airshow

Looks like "Wingman" finally fell off the wing of that plane,....... and it wasnt a case of "happy landings".
More like a "Wile-e-coyote" landing.....................
