What did you do in MSFS today? (Part 1)

Today I downloaded the DC Designs F14 from the Xbox Marketplace and flew around Rio de Janeiro. I was really impressed by the quality of the airplane (even though I am not a fighter expert :grimacing::grimacing:)

I tried to figure out how to set an approach in the 787-10 (after getting one assigned by ATC) without it turning back to the departure. Using the same method as in the A320, which is, changing the route so it ‘forgets’ the previous waypoints.

In the A320 you can use DIR to the same destination which will make a new route from your current location, then add the approach and the plane won’t head back. I tried that in the 787-10, but it’s smart enough not to change anything when it;s the same destination. So I tried a different destination to ‘reset’ the route and CTD. It worked before when I was further away from the airport, but now it simply crashed.

Workaround the bugs, CTD :confused:

Update: I landed at Sydney approx 17 minutes ago and have successfuly taxied to the gate. I was in the air for a bit over 9 hours (Tokyo to Sydney is fairly long). 787 worked pretty well on this flight.

First time flying in a lightning storm on the way to Barcelona using live weather. Looked awesome. Shame I could never get a screen shot of the lightning. Next time I will have to record instead

Continued my tour of Germany today. I switched from the C152 to the C208B Caravan, mainly due to bad weather in the start but also to mix things up a bit.

I started where I left the last time in Magdeburg (EDBM) and made a short hop to Brunswick (EDVE).
After that I headed towards the Harz mountain range, a small mountain range in Northern Germany, with its largest mountain the Brocken:

I surrounded the mountain range on the west side before I flew along its southside backtracking to the east. On my way, I checked out one of the local grass fields in the surrounding Bad Gandersheim (EDVA):

Last stop for the trip was Allstedt (EDBT). On the way there, I passed the Kyffhäuser Monument overlooking the east side of the Kyffhäuser mountain range:

To be continued…

Rather long flight, Munich to Hamburg, via the Ruhr valley. Flightsim.to creators doing some marvelous liveries and sceneries. Munich was a payware airport and WU6 scenery. Had to see where the Oktoberfest happens, but I guess nobody has it with the buildings that open in mid September…






Then, off through Stuttgart to Koln to top off the tanks…


Got late when I got to the Ruhr Valley scenery, nice sunset, some of the freeware scenery was still visible, factories, museums, the like (wish I knew the area)…




Dropped in at the hospital helipad scenery in Minden (what a production the creator has done)


Finally, the police helipad at the payware Hamburg airport.

Trying a new clean installation after last month’s CTDs and weird key binding behavior no one else seems to have had.

Quick proficiency hop from Torrance to John Wayne International - with a glimpse off to port of the Tustin Blimp Hangars on the old Marine Corps airbase.
