I broke out the old DC-6 for this theme flight. It was a nice slow relaxing flight, until all four engines gave out over Germany. I'm guessing icing in the carburators since I forgot to turn on the heaters. Anyway, after a brief diversion (hence the climb out shot mid-way through the series), we were on our way again to LOWI.

Well done Ben. I've flown into both (real world AND sim world), so they're very recognizable to me, even obscured by clouds like Munich was. I actually stayed in the hotel in the center of the Munich airport.
