The execs are visiting from out of town and they want to see the sites in NYC...and then head up to the Hamptons for a late fall getaway.

Hope you enjoy these views including the Hype H160, TDS GTNxi, Dreamflight KTEB, SamScene NYC, iniBuilds KJFK, freeware KGLA, freeware KMTP, and FSLTL AI traffic (oh boy!)

Think you're headed toward a new category: Flightsim Photography.

Somehow "Screenshot" doesn't really apply any more...

Ryan, very nice series...though you're no stranger to (virtually) chauffeuring the Rich and Famous...in style... (liked the helicopter as the mode of transport, here...) ...

[Due to some reason, I am now thinking of the infamous Hamptons Episode of the Seinfeld ...🙂...]

I do love pretending.  I've always been into the GA and corporate part of flightsim.

Fantastic shots, Ryan. It's always a special treat, looking at your pics.

Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds
