i snapped a real world on of those this week, will upload the pic this weekend

bae 146's r not a bad little plane but reverse thurst whats that about :angry:

Combination of things actually, waiting on a new engine, waiting on some more red tape and in the real world, im on dial up again so its a matter of time to upload images. Dont worry, Im working on it.

:) Well I have decided to go ahead with the flight. However the Beech has been written off. I will be using the SOH Invader. I should have some pictures up in the next few days - hopefully!! The first leg will from Fairbanks (PAFA) to Stevens Anchorage Intl. :plane: More Info to come! >nzflag<

Milford Sound to Manapouri QUOTE Manapouri is a small town in Southland / Fiordland, in the southwest corner of the South Island of New Zealand. It is at the edge of Fiordland National Park on the eastern shore of Lake Manapouri, close to its outflow into the Waiau River. A tourist boat service operates from the town. Early morning start: I look tiny from the control tower: The next leg will be the last! We're nearly there!

The best mesh around for NZ is the Geographx/Simpilot 20m mesh (payware). Geographx/Simpilot also do a freeware 75m mesh. ;) Alex

I still pick NZMF... :P

Yup, its on the Lower EICAS :)

Cheers - Ran I pulled out stuff to do with fences - sometimes my rig gives shimmers for these also. Look for files like these, and rename them with a .bak extension, put them back one by one in the scenery folders to taste. E.g. NZWT Whitianga\Scenery\NZWT_MshFce.bak NZDA Dargaville\Scenery\DA_FrmFce.bak and so on. Don't forget to add a blank texture folder if the scenery doesn't have one. QUOTE...

Hi I can understand where you're coming from - I have 3 teenagers and trying to juggle family with work and a wife that is off work with a ruptured disk in her back kind of puts a crimp in the flight simming for sure. As some of the others have said here - take a break, you will come back stronger and we will still be here to follow your exploits - I am not one that posts a lot but I do enjoy following along - so we will not bail out on you. Try different aircraft if thats what you want to do, the main rule in simming is that there are no rules - it's your tour so you can make the...

Great stuff KBG, reminds me of last year's NZFF Aero Club flights in the JF Tomohawks... good times!

QUOTE (K5054NZ @ Jan 7 2008, 03:22 PM) I'd dearly LOVE a teardrop XIV! In my opinion a teardrop canopy really makes a XIV something interesting. Not a fan AT ALL of the highback ones :poo: YIP , Tims old 14 , or even the 16LF on the stick outside NZCH , found the site , closed down :(

Pete Dowson's Autosave: Best friend to the long distance simmer! :thumbup: Good luck with the tour - it looks good. :plane:

QUOTE (Naki @ Dec 28 2007, 03:29 AM) Nice shots - the FSX Caravan VC looks nice (better than Feeltheres FS add on one for FS 9 add ). Is the Waiheke/Thames scenery part of FSX or something you have added? I think you might have your screenies a bit muddled as you are touching down in Rotorua not Tauranga. Ooops sorry bout that, using scott's thames addon and waiheke add on thats available on avsim

YIP.... after many AGN s - 1000's of square km,s Education , memories , of the places i,ve been , even the changes , I even brought a new NZ Atlas to fill in the gaps , The New Zealand Education System should use flightsim as a Geography tool :D , come to think the whole world :o WOW wicked B-)
