Sabre 28 Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Well like so many things in life these shots came from a mistake. I started with the intention of taking a short flight from Cork to Shannon via Kerry to show the new Ireland scenery. After loading the flight however I realised that I had it on the dusk setting! I was about to restart when I noticed how dramatic the sky looked and thought what the hell I'll fly anyway. I decided just to do the first leg of my originally planned flight and take the short hop from Cork to kerry. I've included a short video of the "landing" if you can call it that but decided to include it since it's the only video footage I managed to get before FRAPS glitched my graphics. Please excuse the landing and the rather awful runway exit onto the taxiway. That's what you get trying to get external views and fly at the same time :icon_yikes: Cork departure Link to post Share on other sites
pacinka 0 Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Lovely shots and video! And don't worry about the landing - I've made worse landings than that. Link to post Share on other sites
PanzerFodder 0 Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Absolutely fabulous mate, loved every minute of it. Could not see anything wrong with the landing at all, you should see the ones that I make "LOL" . Nice choice to use the aircraft sounds instead of music, I find it interesting to hear what different aircraft sound like BTW: What engine is in that plane? and did you ever fix the surging away thing at start up? just asking because the Kodiak that I just got does it as well ???
