Consilidated Catalina

[Ian Warren]

Our own early Pacific Pioneer Thankyou Jan'JK'Kee,s .

Areosofts Catalina , Flight yoke and throttles , what an experience !
Start one engine .. lets try again , bobbin up and down in Lake Rotorua , REALNZ scenery , this Cat had no wheels

Time to turn her into the wind , then as a Famous New Zealand Aviation icon Fred Ladd said " Off and Away in a Cloud of Spay "

As i headed out , the plan was to fly the 'BOP' route out - Bay Of Plenty , a freeware scenery , Photoreal by Tim 'Timmo' Barnes ... AWESOME!

The mix off blended payware , RealNZ and Tim's scenery really come together here a smooth transition

This area is difinetly Catalina country ! .... I think 'JK' had the Coral route planed for this one

A test flight maybe , ....... well it is at the mo ,

Looking out over my left shoulder we have Robins RealNZ Rotorua , Timmo's The lakes and in the far distance Mikes HamiltonX ,an area filling the gap,a new scenery .

Time to plod on

Did anyone mention i really like this Catalina

Thanx Guys .... Best part is most of this photo-real scenery is free and truly autogened

That's a nice Cat, forgot they came with no feet, thanks for the paint JanKees.
Great pics, too, Ian.
