Does anyone know what, if any, setting will fix the flashing smoke coming from the two log cabins on approach at Juneau? The smoke seems to flash in sync with Orbx's custom approach alignment lights. I don't recall this issue in DX9. -
Hi folks, I haven't done this for quite some time but today I took the plunge and flew a fantastic flight from Anchorge Int'l (PANC) to Juneau Int'l (PAJN) with the fabulous PMDG 737 NGX. After a successful engine start of our today's aircraft N617AS we are taxiing out to runway 33 for an early 8:05 am departure as Alaska Airlines 62. Lined up with runway 33, heads-up display down and advancing the throttles. Gear up and we are leaving Anchorage Int'l airport below us. NOEND1 departure is leading us to the north, then east and finally on a southern course. What a great name for a SID. Still dark outside but the sun is slowly rising. I really love those HUD operations. A bit later and further - the sun at its full glory and cruising along the coastline of Southern Alaska. Not only the sun looks stunning, so does the open sea. N617AS from a different perspective. Descending into Juneau. Fantastuc view on Alaska's mountains covered by snow. One of a few clouds our 737 soars through on approach to Juneau. On finals for runway 08. Excuse the high vertical speed I haven't used the HUD for visuals for some time. The lead-in lightning system guides us the way in. Not really necessary in such good and clear weather conditions. Last shot, while taxiing to the gate. Well thanks for viewing and comments welcome. Best regards, -
This is a really old plane -- both in reality and in X-Plane. Still, the model is one of my favorites. Next morning ... -
Short flight from Ketchikan to Juneau, manual landing with real weather.
