January 18, 20206 yr Thanks to the magic of the sim, my Republic Seabee was transported to Anguilla in the Caribbean Taking off from Wallblake, sorry, Clayton J. Lloyd International Airport. Leaving Anguilla behind we'll be overflying Saint Martin. There's a bit of drizzle, but I don't think it will bother the cruise passengers too much! Buzzing the field at Grand Case Passing over Philipsburg with the Port of St. Maarten at about 10 o'clock off the nose. Bound for Saba Island. Time for a coffee... Or several beers after the landing: It wasn't pretty, but a cursory inspection revealed that the landing gear was still attached and there were no scars under the hull. (NOTE: any other AVSIM members in possession of this plane may want to have a go at a TNCS landing for a bit of a challenge!) Taking off again can be a challenge too! Off over to St. Barth's We will be making a full stop arrival, apologies.. landing ...at Gustav III airport TFFJ LOVELY! FSX NOTAM - I think I'll apply the fix to get rid of the red text box; the only way to display the chocks & tie downs on the Seabee is to have the parking brake applied. Enjoy!

January 19, 20206 yr Mark: Great aircraft (and text)...thanks..! [And, btw, regarding, "... It wasn't pretty, but a cursory inspection revealed that the landing gear was still attached and there were no scars under the hull...", I do see someone, standing near the flag poles, making a call...hope you didn't get into any trouble with the local authorities and could (safely) resume your flights...🙂...]
