allardjd 1,853 Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Wow! Now that is a story! :eyebrow: The shots were good enough to have carried it off as an above average ATWC flight. Add the story line and humor and it's the very best yet. I loved it. :mrhappy: Link to post Share on other sites
nicholas1125 0 Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Wow! :shock: That was an awesome story! I didn't know the importance of the baton. I was glad I got it to you safely. The pics were incredible, too :eyebrow: Frank Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Frank, The baton is a legendary ancient artifact, rumored to have mystical powers. It's coveted by many nefarious organizations who would like to bring it's power to bear for the dark side. Part of the "challenge" is being sure it doesn't fall into the wrong hands. You can see photos of the real thing here. http://forum.mutleyshangar.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=433&hilit=baton John Link to post Share on other sites
hurricanemk1c 195 Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Yep, the baton is legend!!!! Great shots Mutley, by my counting you have beaten by huge flight of BA's last 320-111 flight by 5!!! So cool If anyone is wondering about the A320-111 screenies, look here : viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1252 Kieran Link to post Share on other sites
A320cap 0 Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 :eyebrow: :mrhappy: Joe, This is probably your best (why not the whole challenge's?) leg. Very well written story followed by stunning shots. You should have spent a lot of time doing these... FSX made these shots even better, especially the approach at Paris Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,493 Posted March 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Thanks for humouring me guys! It was fun to do but I would say John & Dai are the master story tellers of the challenge :eyebrow: I really did enjoy using FSX for this one, I couldn't have done it in FS2004 Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
wisemanp 0 Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Wow! Fantastic leg Mut!! The approach shots are just something else! I'm afraid I was tempted too much by the attractions of a night in Paris but i shall be taking the RER out Roissy from my hotel near the Louvre tomorrow! Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 What can I say?? Except....... Many thanks, Joe..... For your post - the best yet..... For the ATWC - unique, no question.....

dgor 0 Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 Amazing job Mut, loved the storyline and humour, and those shots are just fantastic. Fantastic! You've really raised the bar with this one. Cheers Dave :-) Link to post Share on other sites

nicholas1125 0 Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 I see now the importance of 'the baton'. I wish I had known that before I let Hector's nieces play with it during the flight. In fact, I was hoping you didn't notice the piece of duct tape I had to put over the small crack in it when it accidently bounced off Hector's uncle Fernando's wooden leg. :poster_oops: :eyebrow: Link to post Share on other sites
TapA321 0 Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Joe, A truly magnificent 5-star post. What a rare post! It had me in absolute hysterics! :rofl Not only did this post carry great humour, but also a superb quality of shots, a variety of vehicles and a certain Mutley's Hangar effect, that only we flight-simmers can describe! A classic ATWC post, well done indeed! Sorry this reply is late. I am replying to all the fantastic legs completed while I have been absent!
