Santa Barbara to Burbank with friends....

Had a wonderful group flight with @cavaricooper and @Ron Attwood this evening.  We took the outstanding Carbon Cub and just had a blast!

Taxiing out.....

Just after a really short takeoff roll (this thing begs you to fly when you push the throttle forward!)  I'll be high in some of these shots and deemed the official photographer for the flight....I was the only one with a proper camera. 🙂  (The other guys may have snapped a shot or 2 with their phones, hehe)

This flight alone was worth the price of the sim. 😉   Thanks for the great flight @cavaricooper and @Ron Attwood!

 

@Ron Attwood this is one of many vids out there on our new world (of painting)....now we just need to find the time to learn it! 🤔

I lived in California twice in my life I really liked it there.  I agree I have gotten my monies worth out of the sim!

Nice shots, must have been a great flight.

Why the venezuelan ICAO under the names?

I had many trips there in the past few years...mainly in the Duarte/Pasadena area....CA is beautiful no doubt.   Can't wait for today's patch and see what they've done to improve it (hopefully). 🙂  Hope its a smoooth patch day (All fingers crossd)

Thanks....yes a wonderful flight indeed.  We flew chatted and generally had more fun that I can recall in the sim in many years!

The ICAO I believe is coincidental for a Venezuelan reg...Believe it means SaVage Carbon cuB ....that area of the data tag is where the aircraft type goes...if we were in the Cessna's it would say C172 I believe.

Looks fantastic, must have really been a great experience 😉

Thanks Guys!

@Phantom88 You know it!  This is the one I fly most, and outside of a few here (and those who don't know without googling), I find it sad that a lot of people don't even know what "D-Day" (or "invasion stripes" ) are.  I painted them on a model of a Typhoon back in my youth as the  instructions in the kit told me too....had to pull out the Encyclopedia Britannica to see what they meant. 😉

@Ron Attwood, thanks!  will check them out and turn them off in our next group flight when I start snapping pics!

@P_7878 and @bernd1151 ...it was a blast, MSFS has made flying with your friends easier than any previous version, and not a single blip on performance!

Certainly looks like a lot of fun.  I am yet to give multi-player group flight a go.
