A rare evening flight in the CJ4.  I didn't intend to take pics (I was just enjoying the flight) but with the clouds and sunset it became clear that it was to be haha!

I add some pics of the lovely freeware KDTW scenery at the end too.

The routing is KTVC PNNTO GRAYT2 KDTW - at FL270.

This is me blasting out of TVC.  I did a quick climb as there was icing and I wanted to get well clear of it fast... the cloud tops were around 16k or so as I break into the evening sun

Even though the CJ4 is a default aircraft, it's been heavily modified over the years by WT and other freeware devs - it's a superb aircraft for flights in all weather!

Greeting the moon!

Just as fast as we reach TOD, we're out of the cloud bases being vectored for the visual to runway 3R

And then are cleared to land from tower

We'll park on the east GA ramp

Someone alert the FAA lol!

Some evening views of the DTW scenery

I didn't try hard for these pics... the moon was just a great spot tonight!

Tower is busy ripping some departures

The developer even did some great interior work!

I would recommend this excellent freeware scenery!

 

Great evening shots. (Number 4 in particular.)

Looks great Ryan

Seems like a very nice and enjoyable flight, Ryan....

Lighting and mood are all excellent, and the silver moon helps too...🙂...
