Haha well fetched, Harald.

I forgot to add my applause to those lovely shots, 

:Applause:

glad the thread resurfaced.

Are we there, yet?

 

I'm not quite sure, Harald. I'm presently not on board the Passat. I have left the ship in San Francisco, as I needed to attend to some business there. But I will send the captain a radio and ask him of his exact position  :wink:

While I appreaciate the hard work and attention to detail, how practical is this? I mean sure, for the purpose of something like this thread it can give you lots to look at, but do we really need that much beyond the exterior model of the boat for *flight simming*?

 

Just makes me wonder if all these little things add up to take away from my FPS and for nothing really if we talk about flying...

Harald, the Passat has already left Valparaiso, has successfully sailed around Cape Horn and is on its way to Hamburg, Germany. Once it will go up the river Elbe, I could post a few pics here. But I'm not sure, whether I should actually do that, as this forum is more related to flying than sailing :wink:  

Thanks Bernd. I at least will appreciate some Hamburg pictures...

Ah but do they not make Airbuses right there, next to the river?

I am sure a low-flying A320 test flight would be nicely framed in the rigging...
