Nice to find a payware scenery getting some post-release attention.
Time to go West again.

Enough circuits, what to take down the coast, then?
Haven't flown the Gabriel in a while.
I happened across a RW clip of it, and it's a great little plane, very properly sorted.

It classes as an Experimental Aircraft, my very pale passenger would attest to that notion.

But it's a doddle to fly into all sorts of places, and you have really good situational awareness within the sim too, thanks in no small part to the extensive and friendly avionics.

Well... nice of you to look, and drop a comment, Marty.
I am wondering if the other 69 83 guests currently watching have that capability, not to mention the other 143 viewers of the topic.
Mebbe we humans will be wholly sidelined at some point eh?

No problem Charl..... I haven't been contributing much lately, but I do try to comment/credit when I can.

It's changed a bit since I used to operate through there.
I take it that is the KiwiFlightsim offering Charl. 2000 or 2024?

The scenery looks rather nice. The West Coast isn't an area I'd previously paid much attention to in the game but I was impressed by FS2024's default Westport - someone put in a lot of effort for a very small site!

Yes, updated for FS2020 - I am wholly satisfied still.
What did you operate through there, CP?

Funny you should mention that

We operated the F27 there as part of a WLG - NSN - CHC - HKK - WSZ - WLG and of course it was done in reverse as well. I had one unscheduled overnight in Westport due to bad weather. The locals treated us like royalty.

Nice shots of Hoki!

Great to see this released to the Marketplace yesterday, along with NCRG and NSFA! Some great add-ons from Kiwifightsim.
