November 3, 20205 yr When you are sequestered in your house and are looking for new things to do sometimes your brain makes a suggestion. This morning such a suggestion came to me and although this has probably been done by others several times over it was a first for me. I decided to explore Manhattan Island in the Aircreation Ultralight. Starting from LaGuardia I flew towards the North (I think) end of Central park and then turned toward the buildings. I flew above and between and around them until I reached what I presume is Battery Park and then on to and around the Stature of Liberty. Quite a fascinating trip. The framerates remained quite good but I suffered a lot of skips and short pauses. Not bad enough to abandon the trip but annoying none-the-less. It was a different and sort of exciting little trip. Enough so that I created a startup scenario parking my ultralight in a grassy area of Central Park so I could go back and do some more exploring. That is probably illegal as hell, but it's my flight simulator and I make the rules. Oh yeah! I flew it in P3Dv5. Noel Edited November 3, 20205 yr by birdguy The tires are worn. The shocks are shot. The steering is wobbly. But the engine still runs fine.
