Captain Sim 737-200

Instead of flying west directly to the islands, we head first to the south to have a look at some of the majestic volcanos

This one is the Cotopaxi volcano

And these three are the Tungurahua (below the plane), the El Altar and the last one is the Sangay volcano

But even more famous is the next one

It’s the Chimborazo

And here you can see all four one more time

We fly over Guayaquil and get closer to the coast

Our first Galapagos island is San Christobal

But we continue our flight to Isla Isabela with its six volcanoes, some of which you can see in the distance

Here we will also land

That was an enjoyable trip. I hope you liked it too.

Beautiful set. I too have that CS 737-200. Where did you get that AeroGal repaint from?

Thank you very much. The best source for CS repaints is the CS website. If you go to the 737 section and are registered, you'll find all of the repaints there. Another option is here, Avsim. Just search for 737 Captain Sim and many repaints you'll find here too

Thank you for that heads-up. Yes, I am registered at CS. Wish they'd update their 707 and L-1011 too.
