Propliners Wednesday flight?

For everything about online flying around New Zealand

Postby gojozoom » Wed May 14, 2008 9:54 am

Hello, hello,

What about a nice and calm longer flight with older propliners like DC3 or Hawker Siddley (Mount Cook version) (my personal favourite), or an YS-11 . I love them, they have history, many memories and almost EVERYTHING is manual, so it can be challanging. You tell the place where to go :)

Hmmm.... Sounds good. I'll make a fligh plan (an easy one) so we can't loose each other (as it happened sometimes :) ) I'll go with my HS 748 which has similar cruise speed.

I downloaded 160mb 19metre terrain for Alberta in Canada last night around Banff. Will post some screenshots up at some stage, it is awesome.
