Just flying around in the skylane over Guatemala...

Not as much trees as you'd expect from a rainforrest...  :-/

One pic to make it all look a little better.

I think I discovered the World's narrowest runway! It's called Bananera (MGBN).

These shots made me realise how much better FS9 is than FS8  :(

Narrowest runway? Try to land at SESM, Rio Amazonas, Ecuador. What surprise!! ;)

ironic ?  ;D

Greats shots anyway. !
For sure, the scenery lacks some consistency there, and the autogen density is far from being adequate...
PS: for the runway, I had a lot of fun in Packwood :)

Thanks, Daube!

About the runway issue, I hope this takes away your doubts:

:o
The runway is really narrow !

This kind of runways always surprise me in a bad way: when you're used to large runways, narrow runways make you think you're still too high, and suddently your tires touch the ground without notice :D

Longest Runway
Narrowest Runway (already cleared that up)

great shots!

if u want a great flying challenge download the Colombia Mesh pack from AvSim, install it and go from SKBO (Bogota) to anywhere in the north coast where you have to fly over the mountains, all usinf a pisto engined plane ;) u'll see great scenery and u'll be busy most of the time :)

happy landings!

========================================

EDIT: i had a crappy P.C before (now i have no P.C at all :() so that explains the lousyness of the shot, i found this shot on my online album, its the Colombia Mesh from AvSim and the Default sky-chicken, the shot was taken in FS2002.
