Airport & Flight Ideas / Discussion

Postby Mattace64 » Mon Apr 21, 2008 11:18 am

Hey all,

Just wanted to discuss some of my/our favorite flights / airports...  I'm looking for some new ideas, and I might have some for you!

One of my favorites is Camarillo, CA to the Channel Islands Airport (Airport Name = Santa Cruz I think).  Definitely not intended for a jet, probably suitable for no larger than the Beechraft twin... and be careful, the runway is a little warped!

Also - Buffalo-Niagara Intl to Syracuse Hancock...  Great for a mid-size civil commuter like the Embraer RJ145 or maybe the lear or 737...  Might as well make it realistic and get creative with the weather too!

Please add to the list... I'd love to here some new ideas especially with foreign airports.

My favorite has to be Mineta San Jose Intl or Metro Oakland Intl
Both in the bay area, California. :)

One of my real life favorite flights involves landing on a lake in a plane with normal landing gear...no pontoons. I've done it a few times and it's a real kick. Can't be done in Flight Simulator though, at least I don't think so. Any doubters, I have photos on my web site...

All over the place. I live in Spokane, Wa, so i'm always flying in and out of Spokane to Places like Seattle, the cascades, Boise, Montana, down to Utah, ect.

Almost anywhere in Alaska is fun too.... ;)
