Hi,

Every now and then even I fly a tube. ;) I thought I'd give Toncontin a try. The scenery is not among the most beautiful out there, but I must say this is one crazy fun approach  :D ;D

[color=#000000]You may remember that I'm not big on tubes, but I like that livery. And the shots are great.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Very nice shots. I've been wanting to fly into this airport myself. What scenery is that?

What a great place for a brick wall on a hill right after the ridge - must have about a 5 degree glide slope  :).

Thanks for the replies! Yes, I came in a bit low.  ;)
The scenery is Toncontin from LatinVFR, but the approach is also fun in standard FSX. Whenever you think you are clear another hill comes popping up  :)
