Landing in Wellington

Post by Mattly » Fri Nov 03, 2006 12:45 am

Another evening of flying and Big Al's first flightsim experience. We approached Wellington from the south with the current real weather. We are flying Kingairs which are a two prop passenger plane used bty the NZ Air Force. Of course ours weren't Air Force planes because we are to OLD to be in the Airforce. ;p

Ron came in for a perfect landing but had no passengers because he charges an arm and a leg.

Excellent stuff... man plenty to learn in the gliders with regard to finding lift!

I did the dodge, and beat them there with a Lear Jet, came in from the North GPS Approch on R34, that was a bad idea, those hill are higher than you think, but I made it in safe.

I've ordered FSX from VR Concepts and a new HDD for it to fit on, so if the computer manages to hold up to it I'll definatly join in.
