March 31, 200323 yr That RealAir 172 sp is one hell of an aircraft! Talk about on the numbers. Only thing lacking is a nice panel :).

March 31, 200323 yr i took the FFX/SGA B732 painted in Piedmont colors and re-lived their old Dayton hub by flying from Dayton to Evansville IN. 0.9 hrs.chris
March 31, 200323 yr I took the newest A310-300 from Kodiak to Anchorage, Alaska.I used Paul's new panel, and the Alaska Mesh. The shine on the 310's wings is awesome.I did a circuit in Lompoc, CA in a BAe 146 but stalled and nearly crashed. [email protected]:Banner is 6.6KB, 15 pixels (width) above limit. Cannot Display!
March 31, 200323 yr London ( Stansted ) to Carcassonne, France in the 737-400. Real time, real Wx. Had some Tstorms ( and showers ) come by while on the ground preparing for the return flight. Both airports were VFR and had a good tailwind from England to France and ( of course ) a headwind on the return flight. I really love FSMeteo.
March 31, 200323 yr I may have seen you on the way out billtee! My last flight was from Stansted to Newark Int'l on a VA scheduled flight on the FDX CSI MD-11.
March 31, 200323 yr Took off out of Brize Norton in the Lago Tornado and flew passed London tried to hook up for an aerial refueling and faild to do so. So I ended up heading back to Brize Norton to land and get more fuel and instruction...
March 31, 200323 yr Two stage vfr flight:Yesterday I flew Portland International to Rogue Valley (Medford), then onto Oakland. Real weather, flying the FSD Piper twin turbo-prop. Flew down I-5 which you can do with a just a few jumps to spot view to make sure you don't lose the road.On Friday night I took the MAAM B-25 out of Portland Troutdale and into some small fields in Oregon and CA. Ended up at Weed along I-5 in the shadow of Mount Shasta where once I saw a DC-3 land - it might have been the Otis Spunkmayer plane, not sure. I can't say enough about both of these airplanes. The B-25 is simply the most fun plane to fly in the hanger, though the noise from the twin cyclones is driving my girlfriend nuts! The Cessna is great because you can get into a lot of small fields (esp. if you sit on the reverse thrust on landing) but still cruise at 30,000 feet at groundspeeds of over 400 mph. And it is stable enough that you can hand fly it for long periods of time with only minor adjustments. Got to fix my ai taxi speed though. Had to go around twice trying to make the approach onto runway 29 at Oakland. Colin
March 31, 200323 yr It had been a while since I flew one of the heavies so I took a short hop in my Pan Am 777 from Beijing to Shanghai. Before that I was island hopping around Polynesia in the Sikorsky S-39 amphibion.Ted
March 31, 200323 yr KPHX to LAX Sunday afternoon with Vatsim controllers, flying the Connie. I love those old prop driven big birds...Sherm
