FSX Trying to Shake Off Extremely Rusty Skills Of Creating Pics

[Aharon]

Shalom and greetings all my pals,

 

As subject heading speaks for itself, I have not created and posted a screenshot flight report for long long long time so I am trying to brush off and shake off extremely rusty skills of creating screenshots

 

Presenting a screenshot flight report showing recreation of emergency fuel airlift conducted by Buffalo Airways' brand new 737-300F cargo plane

 

Here is interesting official statement now from Buffalo Airways (real life) and city or town of Norman Wells:

"We thrive on taking on unique challenges and delivering exceptional results. This year, with low water levels preventing barges from hauling fuel, we are faced with the critical task of ensuring Norman Wells receive their essential Jet fuel until it can be trucked in via ice roads.

We partnered with Sandy Macpherson and his team Buffalo Airways, utilizing their 737 for an air barge operation to safely and efficiently transport the fuel.

A big thank you to both our dedicated team and Buffalo Airways for their commitment to completing the first wave of this task efficiently and safely."

Cruising at FL330 back to BFL's flagship headquarters home base at CYZF Yellowknife airport where you can see beautiful sunrise during cruising

 

 

You can see the moon on the opposite side

 

 

Sun has risen almost completely

 

 

You can see the moon disappearing

Thank you for viewing.  Stay tuned for hopefully next screenshot flight report.

Good to see you posting a bit again here...and from FSX...🙂...I owe pretty much all my (acquired) zest for the hobby and knowledge of aviation and aircraft...to FSX...20 years of love affair hard to forget... (Not sure you might be toe-dipping into MSFS soon...🙂...whatever suits you...) ...

Buffalo Airways of Yellowknife is such a hardy airline...I don't know of one more so...especially with their use of unique legacy aircraft, like the one you've shown here...looks beautiful...their only 737 and 38 years old...still in service...just amazing...!

BTW, since you've mentioned Ice Road Transport, just this past week, I watched the Liam Neeson film "The Ice Road"...🙂...on Netflix...A good one. Whether on road or by air, icy transport seems incredible...

Thanks for the post ...!

That will happen 3 years later.   I will NOT move into MSFS2020/2024 until the two new flight sim platforms have ALL freeware and payware planes that FSX has.  For example, can you fly DC-10 or DC-9 or L1011 or so on in the 2 new flightsim platforms?? No because they do not have.  When they have ALL planes that FSX has, then I will move to the newer flight sim platform.  It will happen 3 years later

Aharon
