Flying to Cali....

In flightsim...

 

It's too bad the building to the right is not modeled in flightsim.

 

 

and for real...

 

Can anyone guess the departure airport and runway? (Should not be hard if you know where I live)

And...can you guess the airline and the livery?

Great guess HL!  Funny thing is that Vueling is one of my favorite liveries...but this is not a V bird.  There is only one plane painted like this, if that helps.  :wink: 

There are not too many liveries with yellow engines.

It certainly is DFW, and the runway should be pretty easy to guess as well. 

 

The angle was nice, the pilot launched off the runway like a rocket, it was a great ride!

Spirit Airlines. Google Spirit Airlines liveries and see they have a yellow plane.

You guys got it!

Here she is pulling into my gate....you can see downtown Dallas in the distance.  We're heading to LAX.

I heard you have to pay to pee in the boys room on Spirit Steve-O

They are not quite there for charging for that service yet...but even if they did, their ticket to LAX from DFW would still be about $300 cheaper than DAL or AA! :Rolling Eyes:

In the past their, on-time performance was my biggest complaint, but they have gotten much better recently!  Other than that, $270 round trip to LAX, in a exit-row window seat both ways is much better than the almost $600 the others wanted.  

Say what you will about Spirit, if I splurged and got their $50 "business-class" seats up front, I'd be looking at $370 vs well over $1000 for the same service from the legacy carriers. I'll spend that extra $600+ on flightsim add-ons thank you. :Big Grin:
