What did you do in MSFS today? (Part 2)

I decided to give the HondaJet a go too, since it was not used for a while either. Cork (EICK) to Gatwick (EGKK) using freeware airport addons for both:

Got quite an ugly bounced landing, I really fell out of practice on this little plane :face_in_clouds:

Naha to Yonaguni. Creators have peppered the lower islands with airports.

This might be going against the grain a bit, but posting six of my favorite shots over the past couple of days of flying.

Mostly Europe, but the last one taken over Thailand.

I decided to give the Baron a trial flight, so I took it on a Pécs-Pogány (LHPP) to Budapest (LHBP) trip using VOR navigation only:

Shortly after I took the above picture I realised that there is an awful lot of taxi from 31R to GA parking, so I switched AP off, andsidestepped to 31L for a visual landing. There are clear advantages of flying with ATC off :sweat_smile:

It was not bad, but to be frank the DA62 is more to my taste from this kind of airplanes

CYLT to CYRB in the dash 7 we finally have daylight and I now appreciate living in an area that’s cold but not like the Arctic Circle with its 24/7 of no daylight even more :slight_smile:

Did an 8-hour trip in the Caribbean Sea and visited almost all Lesser Antilles island.
I condensed it in this, for the average person, quite boring video. Each Island has an own chapter, so you can get a good overview of what the last update did to this region and how it now looks.
All was captured while using VR.

It was to me quite an accomplishment to do it in one pass (3 pauses), and it wasn’t boring at all. I’m now very familiar to these different Island, and it each of them has its unique look and character. I caught myself being amazed of the visuals many times.

Another Bush Trip today: Haiti & Dominican Republic:

Heading out:

Leg 1. I prefer to use Bing Maps than the default map view for VFR flying:

Sorta hazy by the time I arrived at MTPP:

Only to be greeted by a firetruck heading down the runway! ATC is disabled for this bushflight, so could not provide my landing intentions to the tower!

Exiting the runway. Just how many passengers do they think can fit in the Cessna 152?

Leg 2. The weather is getting worse:

But climbed out of it and headed northeast:

Almost at MTCH. Citadelle Laferriere is off to the left, so took a look:

A feat in itself, but all this in VR? Wow, just wow :saluting_face:

Took the A20N and about 150 passengers from Split (LDSP) to Bratislava (LZIB):

I found a procedure list similar to GA checklists on flightsim.to and used it for the flight, it was a really big help

I edited the Airspeed Indicator in the JustFlight Piper Arrow III to MILES PER HOUR (as God intended it) by editing the .DDS file with a photo of my own Arrow’s gauge.

Finally, no more “knots to MPH” mental math while I’m flying approaches!!!

I started Haiti & Dominican rep bush-trip in WB-Sim C172 in real weather: MDBH :airplane: MTPP :airplane: MTCH
Compared to previous trip in California with no winds early morning, this trip was much windier and bumpier. Navigation was easy. 1st leg was just flying along valley with large lakes. And the 2nd leg was just following the road. Although according to Little Navmap I breached some restricted namespaces.




Arriving to Port-au Prince I was surprised by some fog. However, visibility was higher than 3 miles, so I continued.


And when I was departing the fog was gone.


I found a POI. And there was fog in Cap-Haïtien too. And this was slightly worse, visibility about 3 miles. Luckily no traffic in the area. Still managed to have nice landing. And just after landing there was airliner departing.
