Goodly morning all...

Just started this simulated flight trying to get back into the mood to use this electronic gizmo

The Old Girl said the pictures were boring...nothing but water, trees and low visibility...

Microsoft Flight Simulator Flight Plan...not a direct flight...
Annette Island>"Fairbanks Intl...Distance 987.3nm and a little more than four (4) hours with a fuel stop

Time: Dawn...early morning...I know the Dawn Setting in FSX looks almost like it is still Night in the first couple of shots...but trust me I set it at Dawn...
Season: Summer

So far I have found this Mitsubishi a fun piece of kit to fly and I have also downloaded the Rockwell Commander which I have not used yet...now as the Old Girl will say here are some boring shots...

Lined up and ready to go...


Outbound...Gear and Flaps up


Going to follow the shoreline all the way at 3000 ft. Altitude


Front Office...


Plodding along...


I do believe we are getting into some CAVU...Clear Air Visibility Unlimited


Not sure you can see it but there is snow on the upper levels of those mountains at the aircrafts two (2) o'clock position


Comments and Advice most welcome...

Good looking shots. I really like the MU-2 also, both long body and short body. In RL you can get a great deal on a MU-2 these days. The owner of the FBO at KFYM (my local) just bought one with timed out TPE's for $110,000. My pops bought a single engine piston 1969 model Cessna for $105,000 last year (zero time pp, but still).

I you start flying the Rockwell Commander much be sure to either use my update, Michael E Roberts update (which includes mine), and also Jetranger's overhead fix for the VC.

I haven't been flying either one as much since Xmas, when I bought RealAir's Turbine Duke.

Thanks jcj78...much appreciated for the information...

What I have downloaded is the Aero Design AC52 Shrike Commander...however I can not remember where I downloaded it from...

There are two simulated aircraft with the download also...

This is the one I thought you meant.

If you like the MU-2 you should check it out. Same (extended) airframe as the AC520 but toting the TPE-331's that are on the MU-2.

Hi jcj78...thanks for those two Links...

Here is what I have now and what I did was continue the MU2 Simulated Flight and switched Simulated Aircraft...will continue with the Simulated MU2 flight later...

Aero Design AC52 Shrike Commander in shots 1 and 3...


Front Office of the Shrike Commander...




Beechcraft C-45 Expeditor...put a few hours on these in the LOG BOOK...had to watch when docking on floats...they could eat freight, luggage and take peoples heads off...most low wings are a pain when docking...


Front Office of the Beech...this could keep one busy at times...


Passenger compartment of Beech...


The Beechcraft is available right here at our Simviation Download Site and is one of the nicest simulated aircraft to fly in FSX...
