Classic Jet

Somewheres called the GAFFA in Oz

Standard morning inbound to Darwin

Just a reminder I guess of what everyone is missing as the wait on the never never for MS to come good! the DC-8. DC-9 or B717 in MSFS ah nup - never!

Days end at Cairns Queensland

Broome to Darwin to Gove to Cairns - standard DC-9 run once. On final off the ILS at Cairns. ORBX Cairns

A somewhat overlooked aircraft these days but quite happy in P3Cv5.2, the DH104 Dove.

Heading South from Durban to the Cape.

Heading South from Durban to the Cape.

Nice shot there. One of the first to go back when I set up 5.2 never dissappointed with it in fact it is remarkably good - the delightful Dove very nice! DH did very well with the Dove and they sure got well used all over the planet.

One of the legacy tankers I'm working converting with PBR and such. The mighty PB4Y-2 "Super" Privateer.

Great work!
Such an intriguing aircraft. 1st thoughts is a Liberator with a straight vs an H tail.

Another Dove: Royal Flying Doctor Service departing the Alice. Not today as the Todd is running a 'Banker'.

Is this ORBX's Alice Spring scenery? I have it but never saw this part.

 

[wombat666]

It certainly is YoYo, you need to pay more attention.......

Rob Richardson's Cougars are beautiful models; I've spent weeks tinkering with them. This is a 'T' from VT-25 in the early 1960's. Sometimes the trainers are the prettiest...

One of my regular rides Dave.
I do like the 1950s aircraft, and Rob has done them justice.

Rob Richardson Airspeed Ambassador

Described as 'Elegant' a British pressurised piston, killed off by De Havilland when they took over Airspeed and runover by the Vickers Viscount. Got good run in Oz with Butlers Air Transport, another one from the 1950s thanks to Rob Richardson.

Thanks to DaveQ and Wombat66 for reminding me of Rob's Great Aeroplanes. The Airspeed Ambassador (now in the library here fortunately) works fine in P3DV5.2 (few minor bugs thats all)

A bit of Nostalgia

Butler Airspeed Ambassador

Busy place Tooraweenah NSW in the 1950s.

Not sure if that is old fashioned country APU or the local taxi in the foreground. Airport at Tooraweenah in northern NSW in OZ is long long gone alas.

Arthurs Babies

To be able to do that is what makes P3D so special.
What happened to Butler - snaffled up by Ansett and became Airlines of NSW, not Arthur Butlers doing - employee shareholders sold him out!.
Flight Replicas lovely fixed gear Heron, M Jahns C-47 and the JBK Viscount - all alive and well in P3DV5. Scenery by ORBX.

The not rapid Rapide.

Dave Garwoods DH-89A(v4) ORBX AU2 with a number of island strips from SimMarket. Time to explore the world of Australian National Airways in the lat 1930s early 1940s. Pride of the fleet at the time the DH89.Rex Weather.
(SimMarket has a Very nice collection of out the way island strips in Bass Straight all beautifully modelled- Cape Barren Island, Badger Island, Inner Sister Island, Mount Chappel Island and Swan Island all for V5 and dirt cheap.)

By Dawn's Early Light

A reminder of just how good P3DV5.2 is. No enhancements just standard shaders, EA and True Sky and of course the PMDG DC-6B.

 

[wombat666]

A visual comparison between Rick Piper's HS748 and the JF version.
Both are good and both have minor flaws, I'm just going to fly them both!

Rick's (Free!) version.

The Just Flight (AH if IRCC) HS748.

 

[huub vink]

I prefer Rick's version, but that is because I'm just a cheap bugger

Cheers,
Huub

Artic Nights

I seldom post night shots - very difficult to see properly (usually) Well this is P3DV5.3 Grimsey and island on the northern Icelandic Coast was the the departure point. AS weather and the real weather was basically CAVOK. The light and sparkling powder snow on the runway was pretty amazing, the stars actually had a slight twinkle to them and the early phase moon about right as well. Very impressive night scenes indeed. Weather reported sct cloud at a couple of layers near Reykyavik and that is what I got also. This sim just gets better and better.
About to roll RWY18

On the climb out

AH's DH104, ORBX Iceland or NA and AS. P3D EA and TrueSky.
