Low and Slow is the way to go..

Postby Flying Mouse » Thu Mar 24, 2011 1:29 am

Took a island hopping flight (YBAM-YHID-YWBS-YCCT-YMUI). Plenty of coral reefs, plenty of light houses and white coral runways.

Started a early flight. Shortly after take-off from YBAM.

Only recently bought the C185 after I saw how popular this awesome aircraft is amongst everyone.

Really a pleasure to fly. Here I am cruising at 1600 feet. Trimmed perfectly for level flight. RPM running @ 2100 & Manifold Preasure set for 2300.

KEEP OUT. Parked at my final destination Murry Island (YMUI)

BONUS SHOT:

I took a flight over the South West National Park (Oz)

Happy Flight & remember those wheel down on landings!

Great shots. :)

Gotta love the C185F Bush. When you get tired of the default liveries, Mike (TRflyman01) has some great repaints uploaded to the SimV server for it. I have one or two as well, and there may be some others. Plus I'm sure there are some at OzX. Glad to have you in the C185 family. :)

PS: The switch for the red dome light is on the ceiling.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Thanks Patchz.

Yup, luckily I also have the Cerenado Piper Seneca, which also has the dome light in the ceiling. Still took me a bit to find it ;D

Downloading Mike's liveries as we speak, saw some very nice ones at OZx too, thanks for the heads-up!

And by the way, I like the last shot, it really brings out the 'extra realism' as we all say :)
