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.

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...
