allardjd 1,853 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Excellent job. Exceedingly devious, which is good. John Link to post Share on other sites
CSoul 182 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 What put me onto the trail was the Ontario/Paris clue, although there was more than one Ontario as well as more than one Paris, so it took a bit of time. Great clue! Here's the next one: I want the airport in the foreground. The one in the background is a clue: find that and you find the one in the foreground. The clouds are also a clue, if you imagine them as something other than clouds, at this time of the year, in this country (although it never looks this bad, more sparse, but visible for miles).

jaydor 345 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 This is a wild upside down guess. = Essendon Melbourne Australia. Link to post Share on other sites
CSoul 182 Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Same hemisphere.... Second clue: The airport in the background, in FSX, shares its name with a city, but in real life has been (fairly recently) renamed in honour of a politician. The one in the foreground's name...has something to do with money. Link to post Share on other sites
rob16584 42 Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Could it be FAGM, Rand? Link to post Share on other sites
CSoul 182 Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Rand Airport it is, Rob. Over to you. The airport in the background is OR Tambo, once known as Johannesburg Intl. And the Rand is South Africa's currency. Link to post Share on other sites
rob16584 42 Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 I'm getting good at this! Here's my next shot, should be quite an easy one Link to post Share on other sites
jaydor 345 Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Well Rob, that's a cracker. I have tried most Easyjet majors. So I have been looking at the top righthand corner and it looks like a North American Freeway, but the nearest so far is 06R Toronto Pearson. My eyes are getting blured on GE, so it's another clue please.. Link to post Share on other sites
rob16584 42 Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 This runway is only a few years old Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted May 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Is the runway in flight sim Rob? Link to post Share on other sites
stu7708 244 Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Im going to go ahead and guess on the northern end of 18R/36L at Charlotte Douglas International Airport (KCLT) and if I'm correct that runway it's not in default FSX.. at least it was missing when I flew out of there during the last ATWC....

rob16584 42 Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 The runway is not in FSX - should've checked that. It was completed around the time FSX came out. The name of this city could also be a girls name (not Charlotte) Link to post Share on other sites
stu7708 244 Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 Darn.. it looked very much like it in Google Earth... Link to post Share on other sites
jaydor 345 Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 Is that picture from Google Earth, it is not a birds eye view, as there seems to be a lot of ground elevation that stands out to much fo GE? I have spent awhile searching in GE and would hate to think I have been in the wrong place? Link to post Share on other sites
rob16584 42 Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 It is an airport in North America Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 But not in FSX or FS9 - thta makes it a lot easier! Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
stu7708 244 Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 At least not the runway, the airport is in the sim... right Rob? Link to post Share on other sites
rob16584 42 Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 Yes, the airport is in both sims, and probably every version of FS Link to post Share on other sites
