Yeah I know I shouldn't be flying a 1900D into a thunderstorm and then landing in a crosswind on 02!

But ya gotta test your skills! - Timaru to Christchurch

As long as it was less that 25kts on a wet runway then it's all good

Very nice shots there Dash!
Sorry to hijack your thread. Does the B1900 run ok on your end? I have a fairly grunty rig and have no trouble with other addons but this plane just doesn't want to play ball. 9/10 CTD on launch. Textures start going black inside the VC after a few mins. A real bummer.

Just a thought Chris , - press Ctrl+Alt+Delete when FSX is running, this will open the 'Windows Task Manager' , check to see there is nothing else related to FSX operating , I did get an invalid message with my Virtavia A4 that caused similar symptoms .

As always, nice work Dash.

I can see I'm gonna have to step up the quality of my monthly cleanouts.....

Cheers

what weather engine is that? looks amazing

Nice Terry, yep gotta test your skills lol.

Well, you should get Godzone's Timaru, more realism than that one from ORBX out of the box, but don't know if it is compatible with NZSI.

B1900Ds are a bit of a bugger to fly through a thunderstorm though you will be ok above clouds.

Oh ok. I've been using OPUS and AS2012. It doesn't look like that though. More tweaking on my behalf I'm guessing.

no tweaking in those shots, all I did was select the thunderstorm option when i chose the weather option

Bad Weather, 1900D
