I know I always try to treat MSFS 2020 and 2024 like real life and link my flights together, especially if there’s a place I want to visit. However, I’ve learned that sometimes laziness kicks in, and I really just want to view some sights. With that being said: Chernobyl and Bran Castle (kind of)
So I guess someone left Chernobyl running, I didn’t think it was in real life, but perhaps I’m wrong and all I have to say is… COME ON GUYS, can you not add Bran Castle on the Xbox edition? Yeah that big empty spot is where it should be
I forgot to launch Volanta, so this one will be a lost flight in its log, also no landing statistics either, but I think it was allright once I managed to overcome the gusts and get back on the glidepath. You can see it for yourself it so inclined:
2020, Patrol in the Gulf of Mexico. Corpus Christi, to the Yucatan area, to the Key West area. Realized I have to learn carrier ops and aerial refueling. Asobo F-18 with the Super Hornet mod.
Manilla Ninoy Aquino INTL RPLL to Taipei Shongshan RCSS real time and weather night flight. Taiwan looks especially handsome cruising down the airway to the east of the island, its mountain ridge poking through the clouds.
Probably done with the G2 for now, I miss flying the plane myself! The Japan bush trip I’m shooting for uses a Grand Caravan so I’ll switch over to that and take a detour over to Okinawa on my way to the mainland.
Amsterdam to Bruxelles in the “Hunter”. I really came to love this helicopter over the last days! I snaked my route through the Netherlands to cover as many cities as possible on my way south.
2020, Learned a bit how the Carabinieri are in charge of the forests when researching this livery. So, took the bird for a long - with not AP and a lot of manual trimming - flight through the mountain passes. Stopped at Bergamo for fuel. Continued to the lakes north of Milan and a gander at the Palazzo Borromeo, in Piedmont, before finishing in Lombardy.
Continuing the T-6 VFR cross country, this leg threads the needle through the narrow gap between the DET class Delta and Canadian airspace, under the Detroit class Bravo and above minimum safe altitude, and all this before the TFR kicks in for this afternoon’s Tigers game.
My rules for this cross country are no GPS, charts and pilotage only, no ATC, and yet airspace legal, so I aimed for a course over the middle of Belle Island and then followed the US side of the Detroit River down to Grosse Ile making for a dramatic view of downtown Detroit and Ambassador’s Bridge.
Simple fly whit Hawker Hunter The iconic Hawker Hunter, designed by Sir Sydney Camm, now available for MSFS. Containing 10 different models, the Prototype, F2, F3, F4, F6, FGA.9, FR10, GA11, PR11 & Mk.58, with a total of 22 paint schemes.
