Blue Spartan - Landing at LFMQ, at night (8 images)...

Featured Replies

First, this "Blue" (or should I say "Turquoise" Blue) livery was actually the one, which had hooked me into this (freeware) plane yesterday, but unfortunately, I discovered that a wing texture was missing in the repaint file, so, instead, I'd to fly the (equally nice) Yellow. Today, the author has added a texture fix for it. And, secondly, I feel, minimally, one takeoff and one touchdown are must, if not more, to orient oneself with (and to get money's worth from...🙂...) any new (virtual) Airport scenery/runway purchase. So, here, in this post, I've used this Private (German) Registration (D-ESHH) "Spartan Executive", in an attractive (light) Blue color, for showing a few shots of landing into Rwy 31 (i.e. for approaching from South, the Sea side). It's the same runway/heading, from which, I'd taken off yesterday. I've set the (arrival) time to "night", and also restricted the (hypothetical) visibility to 2 miles, for a bit of added challenge, and, to better experience the night lighting and ambience of this airport scenery.

So, after a full day of sightseeing, and having finally (and safely) parked my plane into the assigned (helipad-like) Parking Spot "PE8" (please see the last-but-one shot), I was wondering, where is that nice Hotel in Le Castellet, that I'd made reservations for the night...🙂...? And, note, also, the last image, for next day morning, bright with sunny skies and some scattered clouds, fog completely gone...After a hearty French Breakfast (what that might be...🙂...admitting ignorance, I had to ask my (internet) search friend, and this is what I got, "...brioche, a buttered baguette, or even Zwiebeck-like packaged toasts, with butter and jam, and orange juice and a coffee..."...Yep, that's exactly what I'd...🙂...). Anyway, I am ready for the new day's adventure in the French Riviera...in my (personal) Biz-(Wasp)-Prop...(of the 1930s)...

Hope you enjoy these few images, of this landing and arrival, into Le Castellet,  in the night.

Thanks for viewing....!!

Very cool plane. I haven't seen it in ages 🙂🙂

Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds

My specs: AMD Radeon RX6700XT, AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, 32GB RAM, 34" monitor, screen resolution: 2560x1080

Nice shots and bird!

Appreciated the comments, Bernd and Schwarzgruber....!!

(Bernd, I'd not seen the Spartan, either, since late FS9 / early FSX days...which, yes, was ages ago,...🙂..but somehow recalled it...)
