NZFF

... nah, not what you thought.

Having a flu I got quite irritated registering on here. Doug, however helped me out.
So, to show my appreciation, I'd like to share some screens I've taken recently as I rediscovered the pmdg md11

Please dont expect anything fancy as I'm running the fs9 on a notebook, which I use for uni.

Should be NZCH - NZAA


Still NZCH NZAA


NZAA NCRG


Getting ready for NCRG KLAX




Arriving la




Back in AKL, waiting for some airbus to land prior to departure to nadi






The weather turns out to be just fine here


Landing in nan was smooth




I was checking metars for akl but quickly returned to her astonishing beauty.


cutting through to NZAA


The weather turned out to be horrendous


I received a wind shear warning during approach 1 so I proceeded to go around
Approach number 2 was as shabby






After some f5 hammering I prepared to divert to wlg which seemed rather nice compared to akl, but I wouldn't leave without a last try. I was lucky to catch a gust free 5 seconds during final.




Cheers mates

Nice little old lady I really did like flying on the older grand-mother the DC-10 and it really looked pretty on approach , the little old lady just didn't get her draws pulled up fast enough to be in the race with other big boys , Great screens

They're both really pretty, and certainly (nearly) gone way too soon. I was lucky being able to see them regularly when they were used as military air charters.

Sometimes we get to see the KC-10s at Christchurch airport and seldom a MD-11 freighter (FEDEX) , cargo bays at Sydney OZ was chocker full with MDs in 2007 and 2009 but have not been back since.
