Taming the van

Postby krigl » Sat Jan 14, 2012 4:35 pm

Just some shots from nav practice flights I've been doing in the default Caravan over the last week, trying to get back into things again.

Great ones. Is that REX? 8-)
Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

Those last three are amazing!  nice shots! ;)

Ah yes, the Cessna C208B Grand Caravan.  One of my favorite craft. :)

I really like the second to last shot. Very nice colors, which give a cold winter evening/morning impression. And the default C208 doesn't look bad at all, I love the VC of that bird for example.

Yes, the weather's by REX. I like the rugged Caravan a lot too, just wish it didn't swing up and down so much. I've moved onto the Baron now, it handles a lot better and has a panel that suits me too.

Thanks for the comments, guys!

The Baron might be my favorite default plane in FSX, together with the Beaver.

Cheers! I do like the default planes...but am looking forward to moving on to some freeware and payware stuff when I've got navigation sorted out in my head a bit...
