Milviz did one of their weird things and dropped XP. VFlyte took their turbo Otter back, made it better and re released it cheaper. Pretty good bit of kit. A few bugs but they are slowly getting ironed out. Spent the last few days flying around Wrangell and Petersberg with 30kts of wind blowing across all of the runways :blink: :blink: I'm pretty sure that's above the crosswind limit for the aeroplane but I coped... just.

Some more freight and pax hauling over back into Canada. Up to Iskut and on to Dease Lake. Loving the Otter.

I love turbine conversions because it means that classic airframes will be around for a lot longer. DC-3s, DHC-2s, DHC-3s... still going strong commercially because of turbine conversions.
