Anchorage to Dublin (AL 330-200)

[Triple_7]

After flying around Anchorage in a Waco i decided to take a trip to Dublin, Ireland.

Pushback.

Taxiing to runway 14 for departure.  Its about 2 PM.

Rotate.

Turning for Dublin.

Ahh the Northern Lights are here to see me off.

After circling the airport for about 20 minutes to burn of some fuel I make it to final aproch.

Smoke pours from the tires as we land.  Still was a bit heavy.

At the gate.  As for tomarrow its off to Paris then Sydney.


Once again my pics are all blury after i transfered them over.  I wish I knew what is wrong.

When you fly long haul flights do you increase the simulation rate to rduce real time or just put on a really big pot of coffee?  --  Mike

well i do have to admit that i set the autopilot and increase the sim rate to 16X .  But there for a while when i flew the Concorde I had to sit here for 4 strait hours.  cant increase the sim rate on that one without the fuel getting all off balence and crashing.

as of today im continuing my trip by flying from sydney to buenos aires.  6320 miles and i definatly am going to set the autopilot and crank up the speed for that one.  besides the main part of flying is takeoff and landing so im not missing much.
