Air Baltic (Blue)

[AirbusLad 0]

Hey lads, Heres a flight i did with the PIC 737 With the Air Baltic livery. This is a real route they take but is not direct so im making it direct. Taking us 3 Hours and 50 Minutes. The shots are quite large as i have only just found out how to do it .. Enjoy the shots

We have just started boarding, crew welcoming everyone on board

So we are pushed back, While starting the engines and getting this shot, up in the far right hand upper corner i saw what look like 3 Wing edge lights 3 Planes giving a show maybe? see for yourself

so engines started, ready to taxi to 08L

number 3 for take-off waiting for an in-bound SAS to land

Clear for take-off, rolling out

Getting the gear up

Climbing to 13,000

Now on up to 30,000, Most of this flight is over water

First sight of land

As we start to desend down to 3,500

Its gear down Flaps ready, we are all set to land

Head to head with this lovely bird

Easy does it, looking quite icey down there

1 Last shot of this lovely touch down

Thanks very much for viewing guys and again sorry for the Large shots.

ABL,

Nice shots. Looks very good. Great AC and livery. For the three lights you refer to, at least one is an AC as it has a contrail pointed directly to it. I usually prefer dancing girls more scantily clad, but this IS a family web site, I guess. :wink:

Hint: When you post wide shots if you put hard carriage returns in the longer text lines we

don't have to scroll to read each individual line. I did it in this paragraph but not the one above so you can

easily see the difference in the overall handling of the text. Text in the forum auto-formats to the width

of the widest image in the thread, including the text in all the succeding replies.

Nice shots in a livery i have never seen before. When you start FS with AI often you get clumps of aircraft who are part way through there flights starting at key points in there flights. Ive had 7 contrails running in line before which while not impossible is unlikely. To remedy this i generally set up my flight and go get a coffee. The ai starts its departures and arrivals, also clumped so busy for first 10-20 mins or so. By the time ive set up the FMC and got pushback the airport and aerial AI is usually well on its way to more realistic operation.

Anyhoo, nice shots :wink:

That's a good point Steve and often overlooked as I think we are all in too much hurry to get airborne!
