Finishing our Minneapolis to Chicago flight as we descend on the FYTTE7 arrival and fly an ILS RY 27C

Approaching Rockford (I think hehe)

Chicago approach would have us now and they'll eventually give us vectors to final approach course for the ILS 27C

Quite a lovely evening over Chicago

Over the Sears Tower (I mean Willis lol)

There's no ice on Lake Michigan yet.. but it's cold down there!

We've got our approach clearance!

The sim is quite impressive looking - at the intersection of I-94 and US14

Again with the stunning paintjob.  I've done many paints but I'd never attempt this hehe

My PC was starting to choke here LOL (never thought a 12700K and RTX 4080 along with 64GB ram would not be enough!)  Likely because FSDT KORD is a 2020 scenery and the DDS textures are less efficient than the new KTX2

Sometimes the taxi in at O'hare is just as long as the flight LOL

Ours wasn't too bad tonight 🙂

Hope you enjoyed...  and I didn't have any emergencies this time haha!

 

 

 

Nice part 2 and arrival into O'Hare, Ryan, with this striking livery...

You have nailed the (RW) route in. I was looking, on FlightAware, for the last arrived airplane from MSP to ORD. A United A319 just flew in with the route as shown in below image.

The route was "RST1 RST ZZIPR FYTTE7", with FYTTE7 arrival as in yours, and also landing westward in O'Hare. I see in your shots that you're first flying eastward into the Lake (over the skyscrapers), before turning around to land on Rwy 27C.

Your Rockford guess is most likely correct. You've also identified I-94, which is the one, we take to drive between Chicago and Minneapolis. US 14 is mostly called Northwest Highway around here, passing through Chicago's historical suburbs.

Lovely evening arrival into O'Hare. I see that (black) Hilton Hotel in your last shot, where I've stayed a couple of times...

Thanks for sharing...!

Very Colorful Livery Set
