mutley 4,495 Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 Oh well, in that case it has to be Trujillo MHTJ? Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted October 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Excellent - Well Done, Lad! Trujillo it is. BTW, how do you do attachments?!? Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 You can't Dai sorry. It's restricted to Admin to save disk space. Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Next up.. It may be raining but its hot hot hot! 373 would be a useful number here Link to post Share on other sites
CSoul 182 Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 It's not in South America is it? The only airport I could find that looks anything remotely like that is Rafael Nunez (SKCG). Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Sorry, no. Here are a couple more, I just had to take off from that runway with the 744 Shots from FSX this time and it's stopped raining! Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Is the last one the right way up, Joe?!? Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 I think so, it's an overhead taking off from 180, no trickery! Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 I think so, it's an overhead taking off from 180, no trickery! C'mon, Boss - it is upside down, isn't it?!? Last time i looked, 180 degrees was down - not up!! BTW, is there something in how ions go from place to place... :th_smiles73: Afiat - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
CSoul 182 Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Dai's got it, I think. And the number of times I must have passed right over it... Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 373 would be a useful number here Interestinger and interestinger... I've got the airport nailed (so does Dai) but will let the others cogitate for a while. There's a dilemma with the above clue, however. How can I do this without giving too much away? While it's perfectly accurate in the RW, in stock FSX and FS9, the... errr... object in question has a different... value. You may have add-on scenery that brings FS in synch with the RW but for those with stock FS in either flavor, that clue is a red herring that leads nowhere. I found this place only by searching real world values for the thing referenced by that clue. John Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Hi John, yes that is a real world reference, sorry for the Herring rouge, I didn't think for a second that FS would be wrong. Dai, my overhead shots air aircraft orientated not north orientated, I hope that explains it, I haven't seen the airport name and ICAO yet? Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted October 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 O.K. - I guess I'll come clean! I got it from Joe's Indonesian Airlines B744, turned his top-down the 'right' way up and looked around Tim's Plan-G for an east coast 18/36 field... Came up with Natuna-Ranai (WION) - and the FSX view confirmed it. What the "373" means, I'm not sure, but the NDB frequencies don't match either - unless it's the approach frequency? Nice one, Joe... Ciao - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Well done Dai, 373 was the NDB but as John says that is real world and on this occasion FS wasn't "As real as it gets"! Glad you got the livery I downloaded it especailly for the default aircraft Over to you Boyo Edit..oops RW is 383 :wacko: what a c*ck up! Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted October 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 This should be easy... Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites

allardjd 1,853 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Arrggg... there's a very faint Star of David on the vertical stabilizer if you zoom in far enough. I didn't. Nice work, Marcel. To the observant goes the victory. John Link to post Share on other sites
CSoul 182 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Ok, hopefully this one will be quite tough. Your only clue, other than the cockpit itself, is this... Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted October 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 LFGY - Remomeix - St Die, is near Semomes, where a stage of the 2010 Rallye de France was held ... Just a thought... Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 That one was on my list of suspects, but hadn't narrowed it down from more than a dozen. John Link to post Share on other sites
CSoul 182 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Close, but not Rallye de France. Look carefully at the car door (it's one of the reasons why I chose such a big picture). Part of the stage is held, not on the airfield itself, but within the military training grounds of which the airfield is part. Link to post Share on other sites
