Gotham NYC to Ocean City, NJ

Featured Replies

Gotham Helicopters flight departing NYC (KJRB Downtown Manhattan Heliport) to Ocean City, NJ (26N).

Started as a fun flight but I liked the interesting skies and scenery so I took a bunch of screenshots.  Hope you enjoy!

Passing the Verrazzano Narrows Bridge turning South

A fairly rural area for about 50 miles until the Atlantic City area

I think this is the Wading River (and it intercepts the Mullica River) - which all goes to the Atlantic Ocean

There's the Ocean

And our little airport, hard to make out even this close...

Garden State Parkway (and the Great Egg Harbor Bridge) - and maybe a nuclear power plant?

And we land into the wind  - that's the great thing about helicopters!

Thanks Jack!  I continue to update my mod from flightsim.to - looks like he changed the gauge backlighting to more of a yellow - not sure what I like better.

It's definitely getting better with the free mod at flightsim.to

Yeah the Dreamfoil Bell 407 in XP11 was the best Bell for any sim.  This one...well not the best but it's fun still.  Would be better with a GTN 750.  Tough to get the clickspots in the GNS while in flight.  (They actually don't work well with WT GNS at the moment)
