Some Virgin pics from my VA dutys

I've joined up with a VA (Virtual Airline) under the Virgin Atlantic banner. Actualy it's a co opperative of many VA's called the Flying Tigers group and although you are required to register with one 'home' airline, you can fly any of the others routes as well.

My first long haul. Heathrow to San Francisco. Taking off from LHR.


Touchdown, at KSFO.


My most challenging flight so far, Sydney Australia to Perth flying for sister airline, Virgin Blue. All started well,


Nice up at cruise shot,


But landing was a nightmare! Zero visablity, had to go arround twice to get it right but got a 'perfect' score with FSPassengers for the trouble.


My latest flight, taking off from Perth and going back accoss Australia to Brisbane Int. Visablity still low but better than yesterday!

Landed now from the above flight, here's a couple more.

Fly me to the moon


Dawn breaking,


Touchdown on the east coast,


Hope you liked them!

Nice Shots!

I too fly for FTG, I am a Delta pilot...

How'd you get that haze on landing?

[simonmd]

Cool, i'm VS744 by the way. As for the haze, I simply had real world weather on, so it was a nasty surprise! There can't have been many real flights from Perth that day!
