Mutliplayer Flight Report








For those who have actually read my blog,you will have a noticed I like to have flight reports. Well this is a special report, with it being on multiplayer. The session was called Nor-Cal prop club and was hosted by WRECKERMAN314(If is got it wrong, sorry!).But this session was no where near California,instead in the Cold of Alaska. Most people used the DHC-2 turbo beaver by Premier Aircraft design(available here).The flight started somewhere in Alaska,and went to Pertersburg,Alaska,and points onward. When the Group approached Petersburg, the host told everyone that fuel was needed and that the Suppliers couldn't take American Express,only cash. I have pictures of this session and they are on this post. Now a bit about the Nor-Cal prop club. They do formation flights and visit airports,it is jet less and most times Extra 300 less. This is the server if you love prop planes,formation flying and visiting airports.

Simulated Kenmore Air Flight Seattle-Friday Harbour



Yesterday I did a Kenmore floatplane flight from Seattle to Friday Harbour in the Aerosoft Beaver. The Flight time was about 35 minutes. We left Lake union at about 7:30 Game time,and headed north. We cruised to 4000 feet for most of the flight,but descended to about 3000 feet. We hit turbulence have way thought the flight. We descended into Friday Harbour and landed at about 8:05 game time.I took pics of the plane at the dock,and it's hard to tell if there real or not!(of course there fake,I took them in the Sim) These flights are good for the not to experienced bush pilot,and if you want a challenge,try the San Juan Island Run mission. But this mission takes 50 minutes.Here are a few pics of the plane in FSX.

Flight Simulator flight plan KORS-WA93

Today's flight plan is from Eastsound,WA,to Eliza island,WA. This is probably one of my favorite flight plans because of Birds scenery 5and 6(Eastsound and Eliza island).Anyways the flight should only take about 5-10 Minutes,but it depends what aircraft you bring.Aircraft recommended are ,the Goose,Cessna 172 and caravan,Maule MC7,the ultralight and the J3 cub. For the owners of payware aircraft recommended are The Beaver by Aerosoft and the Katana by Digital Aviation. Good Freeware aircraft recommended are the turbo-beaver and the Twin otter from Premiere Aircraft design.If you can find anymore aircraft that can land at these airport,please leave a comment.The ICAO codes for these two parts are KORS for Eastsound and for Eliza Island,WA93. Also there are various other islands you can add to your flight plan. Look for other flight plans appearing on this blog.

Birds Scenery number 7 -The gold Valley


This is our first post with writing! Anyways I'm reviewing Birds volume 7 The gold valley. It was released over at avsim http://www.avsim.com.This time the birds escaped the United States to the Bella Coola Valley. Birds volumes are made by a David Roch how has released birds volumes 1-6 and he turns the area from boring to fun!He fills the valley with eye Candy's such as static airplanes at airports,docks,hangers,and bears!He really livens up the area,making it fun to fly. This goes great with the Bella Coola Valley Geographical enhancements by Holger Sandmann available at simvation.Although the scenery can impact your system,It's worth it! I would rank this 5 out of 5 as he makes flying fun again! A volume 8 is planed for the very near future,on a different continent.
