Katmandu here I come !

Postby Daube » Sun Aug 31, 2008 8:50 am

Hi all,

I have just completed a very scenic VFR flight from the sloped runway of Lukla to Katmandu with the Antonov An-26. This plane is just perfect for this kind of flights, because it can fly very slow for short landings/takeoffs, and relatively fast for cruising.

Lining up, just got the landing clearance:

Look at that... now THAT's quite a panorama

Looking very good! That 'alternative' bloom makes them look great! :o

Have a look inside my AN-26 topic in the FSX forum. The plane is here at simviation, and I also provided a link for fixing some texture problems.
