From Concrete, WA to Bellingham, WA in a blimp

Thanks to Arkanoid, I've been having fun all day long with that navy blimp.

As for the creators of this FS9 air ship, I have to say - VERY well done. I've had more than a few FSX aircraft that weren't this well made.

And needless to say, it works perfectly in Prepar3d V2.5 too.



A Nice day trip

I was out of bed very early, and went down to the Concrete, WA airport, 3W5.

There, I was picked up by a blimp for a scenic trip to Bellingham, WA.

Over the Baker Lake Dam, and up a little ways over Baker Lake.

Baker Lake, with Mount Baker in the background. This Baker guy really got around. Must have liked his name a lot too.

Image


Past Sherman Peak on Mt Barker

Image


And starting down the mountain. What a ride!

Image


Nothing like a free trip on the taxpayer's money. :D

Image


Beautiful & a nice place to live. What more could you want?

Going in for a landing at KBLI.

All off. They wouldn't let us land near the other aircraft. :(

He was going to send me a link, but I found this one before he had time to do it.


The download can be found under several names -> k28usnzj1.zip, k28neam.zip, k28usn.zip.

I think that the one that I have is k28usnzj1.zip from SurClaro, but I can't connect to them at the moment.


This file, k28usnzj1, from fsdome, looks to have the same files in it.

Then you will absolutely enjoy this airship.

It's both easy to fly, or more realistic (a relative term).

It come with an informative 13 page manual.

Enjoy, and don't forget to thank Arkanoid for bringing this airship to our attention. :clap:
