Cape to Cairo (maybe) in the Ju-52

Just the one. I may attempt the titular flight, or parts of it, but almost certainly with my finger on the "increase sim speed" key for some of the time.

First impressions are good.

Yeah I tested the Ju already, too. Some minor bugs but overall very very nice. Regarding the tour, we did it as an online event in our virtual airline a few years back following the real event from Crete to Cape and it was a real blast. But watch out the weather and especially the rain season. If you need some inspiration check out:

Great shot Andy. I had no idea that she is already available, Cape to Cairo? Yezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz 

Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds

Nice Pic.

I got it/flew it for a bit. I like it a lot.

I might need to read the manual for this one. Is there such a thing? I did a search for new PDFs on my system and didn't see one.

Thanks Bernd. See you along the route? And I just realised I always refer to it as "Cape to Cairo" and yet always plan to actually fly in the other direction. I think it's a bit like "Lennon and McCartney" - it just sounds right that way round.

Thanks Richard, and I haven't found anything on my system either. Fortunately, it doesn't seem to need a lot of attention from what I've seen so far. As I'm a "ctrl-e" sort of guy anyway that works just fine for me.
