Hey guys hows it goin? Enjoying the HANAC Airbus as always and thought I would put up some pics of a recent flight. Once again thanks to HANAC team and of course all the simmers on here for watching.

Hope you all like the shots :D

Everyones boarded except one pax. They had to announce his name over the PA. He was still in the duty-free <_< . Anyways he is found an hustled to the plane. Silly person why he didn't listen to the PA no-one knows! The jetbridges are pulled back ready for departure from Kuala Lumpur.


Taxying to the runway with corny ambient music playing.


Lined up and ready to go. All instruments in the green, pax buckled up :radar:


We're off! See the motors working hard to shove us into the sky (I ate a lot before the flight *burp*)


Climbing and establishing course to Bangkok. Do your work flight computer -_-


At crusing altitude over the Gulf Of Thailand. It was a bit bumpy over here but not that bad.


We are approaching the coast now after a smooth flight, always a good sight to see land. Woo! See all
the beaches!


All too soon its time to begin our descent. Actually not that soon because I really needed to go the bathroom.


ATC begins to vector us onto the approach course. Here we see the left motor working hard.


Here we are established on the ILS into Bangkok! Slats down :ph43r:


Maybe theres some spotters down there hee hee.


Its time to land and here we are on finals. the Dunlops are ready to earn their money.


"Did we land?" think the pax. Yes it was that smooth.


Slowing down, what a noise. Scared the birds off the airport at least.


Spoilers spoilt the airflow over the wing ruining the lift and causing drag to help slow this crate down


Welcome to Bangkok. Right Mr. Co-pilot, shut her down Im outta here.


More flights and shots to come...

Very nice life-like pics of Thai A300 . :clap:
I am quite familiar with this aircraft as I often see it close up at Changi Airport.

Thanks!

Is that ProjectKLIA scenery you using?

Does seem to look like project KLIA..

Excellent Shots! Have to say, that model and paint arent that flash, the only great thing about the HANAC Airbus is the Panel!! :)

Looks like some pretty old school scenery and aircraft you are running there, although the wing views are supurb! The A300 doesn't get much coverage here so thanks for showing it off to us :thumbup:

By the way, those two big white things on the wings are generally referred to as engines, not motors ;)

Thanks for the comments guys! I forgot what the scenery is but I think I got it from http://walhalla.mine.nu/fs2004.php

The aeroplane model I think is quite old and doesnt have all the bling that newer models have. However it is my favorite A300 for FS9 and is very well done. Small touches like the A300 double-flash strobe make all the difference - in addtion to the great sounds and excellent panel by Simon Topmann!

I will try and remember, I have always called them motors for some reason :givein:
