B744F Polar KDFW-PANC

Recommended Posts

I'm very happy to be back in P3D after months of testing in FSX...., I've got all my Orbx back and latest AS16 weather and of course DX11 lighting. Happy happy happy.  I had a few things to chase down and hadn't done much in the trash haulers yet so let's fire up N452PA and take a trip from Dallas to Anchorage.

 

I grabbed this screenie just because I loved the way the late afternoon light played on the aircraft, and I'm amazed at how a plane-Jane refrigerator can have so much detail. Taken here just North of Helena WY:

A few hours later over Prince George BC, I tried to catch the sunset lighting:

The view from the office in the WITTI arrival, descending into the dusk lighting with the warm glow of the CRTs and gentle panel floods:

Final approach on ILS 08R right at maximum landing weight of 666,000 lbs, Vref is 157 kts:

Delivering the goods, notice the cargo loaders are PMDG, which also provides fuel truck and service vehicles for lavatory and potable water:

Now that is what I'm talking about!

Bring on the trash haulers!

 

Great shots Dan!   Hoping to see more freighters...and after spending time in FSX as well for a bit to paint some A320s, coming back to P3D was such a pleasure.

FSX is off my system now and most likely will never be put back on.

 

I've done the Dallas to Anchorage flight many times myself...and will be flying into Anchorage much more frequently as I picked up that airport in a holiday sale for $15!

Number 2 is a beauty.  Okay...how did you fix the Anchorage lights.

Yes! The cargo loaders from the B744v2 returns!

I might be wrong, but I think they are from FsDreamTeam GSX.

Awesome, Dan! :good:

 

I love the Polar Air Cargo livery on 747.

I love their routes too. Can't wait to fly them myself.

Polar and Atlas are my favorite liveries. And my favorite JustPlane videos! Did Polar or Atlas ever take new build 747-400s with the LCD standby instruments though? I am sorry for being pedantic :)

 

Being able to call PMDG loaders will compliment nicely with GSX since they limit you to 2 unloaders. I hear their GSX Cargo addon is in the works that will add more but in the mean time will be great to have both PMDG and GSX working together. - David Lee
