Just added to my hangar, and I think they have earned there parking ramp as well now.
First is the Project Opensky Boeing 747-8F, which hasn't actually flown yet, but it works in FS nonetheless. The Exterior model is brilliant with plenty of animation, however the interior is the default Boeing 747, as far as I can tell. That is not a bad thing in it self, but it is like all defaults, just enough to get by.

Here it the Exterior model in CargoLux livery.




The new General Electric turbofans.



One bonus for the exterior model is the wing flex and the gear animation.



Finally after using a lot of the runway at NZCH, she was off the ground and flying over the VLC-less North Canterbury





And while your here a quick few screens taken on a trans-tazzy flight from NZCH to YBCG (Gold Coast), using the Project Scarebus A320.





Thanks smile.gif

These cockpits, with glass panels containing almost all the data, look so sterile compared to all the little round gauges from years past. Dare I say - almost automobile like smile.gif .

Nice screenies Connor, great aircraft, and the CargoLux livery is the coolest I reckon. Didn't realise POSKY had done a model of this.
Oh, and for the record, the 747-8F has flown, in fact there are 5 of them in the test fliight program as of February

I would have prefer you stuck with the 747 , a thought , we have had cargo combi 747s in CHCH , the rock bands and such , have we ever had a real flip top lid dedicated freighter here before ?
