Adelaide Airport (YPAD) - Port Lincoln (YPLC)

Postby hasegawa » Sat Feb 04, 2017 6:40 pm

After a long working day I have no intention to "fly the big adventure" but a shorter and slower job like all these commuter aircraft over 1... 1/2 hour only for me and for recreation.
Long time one question for me as European was "Where are all these SAAB-aircraft gone?" Now I know. They are in Australia. The airline with most of this type with 52 examples is
Regional Express Airlines (REX), a competitor for Qantaslink. The only version from the SAAB 340B is from virtualcol, an aircraft for beginners and not a detailed representation, but it does his job.
Today we have a little flight from Adelaide to Port Lincoln. It is not that big thing, around 45 minutes and we have good weather, only some clouds ... I like it, to fly with little aircraft like this not over but "in the weather". A hint: If You have "Active Sky 2016" in use, it is a good idea to use always the theme "full dynamics". You have now a "lively weather" that changed in the background cloud textures proper as for every download of the original weather...

Two of my most fave Flights on the REX SAAB's were to Albury/Wolldonga and to Wagga ... course the temperatures are something to live for :)
