My ride over the last few weeks.

That's a nice VC CCIP :yep:

Yup, it certainly is. I'm really glad feelthere put in the effort into making this one pretty as well as functional. Great little plane - I own their (older) 737 as well, but even despite my affinity for the 737, I find myself playing the ERJ more and more. It's pretty, retentively modeled, and well... it's a more hands-on plane. No autothrottle! In something like the 737 you just hit the VNAV button and it does most of the work for you. Here you really gotta work the throttles, and that really does make it a fun ride, especially on approach. :DL
Still a really "smart" plane though.

Couple more!

Meeting an airforce KC-135 at cruise level. Triggered a traffic alert, though he was 1000ft above me, so no dodging :)

Taxiing in to my base at Charlotte-Douglas airport, E terminal (where most of the little sods like my ERJ are parked):

Sigh... if only I could be arsed to install FSX and stick drivers... :-?

Haha, I know that feeling. For me my FS9 setup is a labour of love... and frustration. Forget the money I spent on add-ons - that's not nearly as painful as the many hours, days, even weeks spent getting it tuned and running as I like it. :damn:

Great screens Arc & CCIP. :)

Ah, the feelthere ERJ-145. I've had lots of flights in FS9 with that plane. :up:
Haven't flown it much in FSX.

Have you flown the Wilco E-Jets? ( Embraer 170/190 )
I've been thinking of perhaps getting it some day.

Doing a series of flights at the moment in a Mooney that started in Iceland, I'm in Tanger, Morocco at the moment, final destination is Cape Town, South Africa.

Edit: Had to redo the flight to Tanger, seems I had accidentaly removed the log of that flight.

Edit2: After completing the Almeria to Tanger flight a second time, it wasn't logged in the log book... It had become corrupted, it is now fixed and I have to fly the route a third time. :damn:

Well, it's not that huge task for me as I use just the stock version. But I know what you mean, when I play Oblivion, it first takes whole day to download all the mods I want and maybe a week the playing is 15 minutes in-game, 45 minutes checking out smaller mods that might come in handy. :DL

Not yet! Maybe next month, these things are a bit expensive :)

From what I understand the E-Jets are fairly similar to the ERJ, except with full VNAV capabilities and a few other extras. I do love the planes themselves, I think out of all the airliners I've been on in real life so far I'd enjoyed my ride on the E-170 the most so far. I think the feelthere E-Jets and v2.0 of the ERJ were released around the same time, so it's probably pretty close in terms of look and feel.


CptSimFreak: is that the Eindecker? Did they already release that? :o

I've been watching RoF from the side, I think I will be picking up the Iron Cross edition of it eventually. Great looks, and I hear the features came along nicely.

S France - S Spain (LFMP - LEZL)
 

Rather uneventfull flight. Just clouds, turbulence and more clouds.

Ah, been a while since I played Black Shark...

Still waiting for a certain Dutch person. :D

Seems like they'll release A-10C before that patch though. :-?

Got my joystick! :woot:

My first flight with the stick did not go very well..

Hmm, not particularly good. The fuel tanks were emptied in the middle of a flight due to a leak. (Got a hit to them in the fight against so(L)viet bombers)

Well the positive side is that the pilot lives another day. Vengeance!

Aah, the old grass is the new sky approach...I've seen that view many many many many many many many times. :yep:

In other news, just took a P3C NOAA Hurricane hunter for a short sprint from Norwich to Mildenhall...very nice aircraft to fly and I even managed to land the damn thing...at night! :o:doh:

Hmm, it is/was also friday the 13th...

"This is Santa Barbara tower calling Edwards Air Force Base...sir...you're not going to believe this...."

Hmm, should have turned left at Albuquerque. :O:

:timeout: For some reason, that aircraft looks ½ scale.:o:hmmm:
