UPS Virtual Air Cargo!

So I was started to get really bored in FS, I ran out of ideas.  I didnt want to quit playing, so I joined a Virtual Airline.  Ive only flown one route (KDEN (My Hub) > KPUB > KDRO > KGUC > KDEN), but so far it has been the greatest experience.  I still havent gotten up the balls to fly on VATSIM, but still, flying a route for an airline and making 'money' is just so rewarding.  

I fly feeder flights (I might attempt some longer stuff in the 757 and MAYBE do some of the long haul) in the 1900C and my next route is gonna be in teh DHC-6 Twin Otter.

Here I am flying in Colorado somewhere.  I am so happy I chose the KDEN Hub, lots of pretty mountains 8)

Yeah, I know, I only have 6.5 hours and Ive done two routes.  But Im going to do a route in the 757 next just so I can get some hours, when I finish the route I should be around 15 hours
