Robert's Cape to Cape adventure

Down at DAOO. Rough weather all the way, but cleared for a good landing.

Great Job Robert!!

I notice tell tale signs of GW3 in your screen shots.

Folks may not know it, but it is a lot more difficult to make out the footprint of an airport in GW3.

One of the first things you do to modify for the retrofit is to find and delete the scenery file that has taxiways on it .... all of 'um

Then a lot of the runways are turned into grass or dirt .... gives a nice ol'time feelin' ... but it's sure tough trying to find an airport you've never seen before.

Forget about lights ... you better be there by dark.

Hat's off to you Sir!

Great Job Robert!
 
Heads Up!

I was just in GW3 at FAYP ... testing for another run.

You need to go there and check out a building crash I encountered just barely off to the west of RWY 20.

One foot on the runway and one foot off .... turning to park ... say three quarters of the way to the end ... there's no building there at all.

If that happens to you too, then I would go ahead to each airport (menu Go to Airport) and have a check.





Cheers,
 
Thanks Salt. The coral runways are usually easy to spot, but the grass ones blend right into the scenery.
Just did a test at FAYP, no crashes with three different aircraft. Nice fall colors down there.
