October 11, 20205 yr Preparing to return to Liege - only carrying 20 tons of bit & bobs.. Climbing out above the haze - tri-holer power! Crossing into Turkey. I did wave to Blackbox Simulations in Malta as I went by.. no one waved back.. Do they not realise I'm a fan?? Lake Iznik just hidden by the glareshield. Sea of Marmara in view. Beginning descent to EBLG we'll be taking the RWY23L ILS today. Slats out to aid manoeuvring with a bit of speed. Waiting for localiser capture. Once she was aligned on the localiser and prior to G/S going active I had the runway in sight so it was AP off and fly her manually with the instrument cues. Not doing a bad job so far IMNSHO Touchdown..🍻 Job done. Cheers!🍻 Mark Robinson Part-time Ferroequinologist Author of FLIGHT: A near-future short story (ebook available on amazon) I made the baby cry - A2A Simulations L-049 Constellation Sky Simulations MD-11 V2.2 Pilot.

Thank you for the update, gentlemen! The FMC did say 22 FWIW. "bits & bobs" - just pay me the money, as long as the weights on the manifest tally so that she'll fly right, then no questions Mark Robinson Part-time Ferroequinologist Author of FLIGHT: A near-future short story (ebook available on amazon) I made the baby cry - A2A Simulations L-049 Constellation Sky Simulations MD-11 V2.2 Pilot.

October 12, 20205 yr Author Just when I thought I'd got it licked! ...just had to get one more dig in didn't ya, Ed! 😄 Only kidding! I thought the tarmac looked a little too clean... Airport Inspector & Editor (AIE) is the current iteration of Herve Sors' ILS inspector - it can and does alter the runway markings and navaids. https://www.aero.sors.fr/navaids.html I will now bear that in mind when using Liege again with the big iron and only request 4R/22L. This is good. It highlights the fact that our sims can be somewhat locked in time.🍻 Mark Robinson Part-time Ferroequinologist Author of FLIGHT: A near-future short story (ebook available on amazon) I made the baby cry - A2A Simulations L-049 Constellation Sky Simulations MD-11 V2.2 Pilot.

But that means my FS9 is more up to date than the very latest sims out there. I see for a small fee Navigraph will now update the MSFS20 database. Something they should have offered to do for all sims.....their loss. My FS Videos
