My December theme flight photo album

Post by Wayne Pierce »

Using for the first time on an actual flight is the B748 - PMDG in the fictional AAL livery, An easy airplane to operate and virtually fly. I always liked the eye candy programs to enhance my visual experience with the flight sims. FSdreamteam airports, ORBX, combined with GSX2 make a good visual world. Open each picture in A new tab using the right mouse button for a larger picture.

No comment on the suprise plane spotter at the in and out burger? I thought that was pretty cool with your photo cropped in.

I was so excited about the In-n-Out shot, I made my wife get up and take a look. She thought it was funny 'cause she's spent many hours waiting for me to finish plane-spotting there, but she also didn't think it was worth getting up out of her chair.

Great looking shots Wayne. I also did the theme flight. I wanted to fly this using my new P3Dv4, however I don't have any heavy a/c in P3D yet. I have the PMDG 777 for FSX but PMDG wants me to pay another $100 to get the P3D version of that a/c which I won't do. Therefore I had to use my iFly 738 which is a GREAT a/c and iFly gave a significant discount to prior owners of the FSX verion.

My pics are not as good but here they are....

I succumbed to the siren call of the islands in my brand spanking new iFly 747-8i. Here's my "proof".

And the journey begins.
