MSFS A bit of PNG bush-flying

[bernd1151 5,836]

The Beech D18S does not necessarily come up as the ideal bush flying plane for PNG, but it’s a lot of fun to use her within her limitations and sometimes also a bit beyond. 😀😀

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The freeware scenery for both airstrips is available from the .to site.

 

Thanks for viewing

Cool shots Bernd.  I wonder if it would be nice to live there, it looks so peaceful.

Many thanks, Jack. The countryside is really beautiful (but the population there is very very poor), bigger cities are more dangerous, especially for us tourists in the evenings. Alcohol abusus is a rampant problem. But again, the rural population is very friendly, bring some small presents, show your respect and they invite you to their huts for some food (which my wife and I have always politely refused 🙂)

Great looking scenery, and a solid landing, Bernd!

Love the pics and the Beech. Love PNG and helped re-build Nadzab airport outside Lae from an old WW2 strip when I was a young Aussie airport engineer many years ago (great freeware scenery for it BTW in MSFS). Often fly in the Sim in PNG and make videos of those flights. PNG is lovely but also often very hot and humid and wet, lots of dense jungle and insects, and skin-cutting Kunai grass in open areas! Thanks for the memories! Cheers.
