Hanoi to Saigon in an old Caravelle

I first ported this FS9 plane to FSX, so I could add a VC, then I ported it over to MSFS, and here is this vintage beauty now. It has been sitting far too long in my virtual hangar, collecting dust 🙂

I'm incredibly impressed, Bernd. I never did really get to grips with the whole thing of merging VCs and such in these portovers. This is a wonderful looking plane, that interior is better than quite a few supposedly newly produced payware models I have.

And a great set of pictures to boot! (not actually sure of the origin of that phrase, but I dare say Google will tell me)

Ryzen 9 7900X, Corsair H150 AIO cooler, 64 Gb DDR5, Asus X670E Hero m/b, 3090ti, 13Tb NVMe, 8Tb SSD, 16Tb HD, 55" Philips 4k HDR monitor, EVGA 1600w ps, all in Corsair 7000D airflow case. Sims in use - 2020, 2024, XP-12 and -11, FSX/SE, P3Dv4.5 and v5.4. DCS and AFS2 installed but rarely used

Good to see the Caravelle back in action!

Very nice shots Bernd! 😉 

Beautiful photos!

To be honest, I didn't expect it to turm out that nicely after I had finished this little conversion project from FS9 to MSFS 🙂🙂

Arguably the most aesthetic plane ever built.... Bernd...!!

Caravelle's most unique teardrop (cabin) windows are quite apparent in one of your (close-up) external shots...!

Great looking set, here.

Thanks for bringing this classic to the MSFS world... (until one appears from somewhere else) ....
