Ten minutes after I landing at La Guadia I was back up in air heading south along the coast to Maimi.  It would be my longest single flight taking about 5 1/2 hours to complete.  I saw much more than I will show you here, but I only have room for these eight.  Enjoy.

Leaving NYC behind.

If I don't any better, I'd say that is Atlantic City NJ.
Image

It's that 17 mile bridge in the one Carolinas.  Don't know which.
Image

I stopped at this small airport for gas called Dare Co Regal.
Image

Hey, look at that!  It's one of the strips the space shuttle uses for landing.  Mile long, buzzed the hole thing.  F-16s scramble...
Image

Wow, one of the shuttles sitting one the pad.  F-16s:  "This  is bonebreak leader, one mile from target."
Image

I sucessfully evaided the F-16s and made to Maimi.  Take that Air National Guard!
Image

Little low on final to Maimi Intr.  but I like it low.   ;)
Image

Next I'll be heading for New Orleans, Houston, and then fly aimlessly across Texas trying to get to the west coast.  So keep an eye out.

Did you know that the shuttle looks much better in FS2004? it has photoreal textures, and the one on KEDW has a photoreal skin too

great shots anyway, and are you going to alaska or only the mainland states

Yeah I've seen the 2k4 shots of the shuttle, it looks much better.  Maybe I will fly to Alaska.  Wasn't planning on it.  Yeah I'll do it, it'll be fun.
