Various Screenies...Lukla, ANAU-AGGH

[Joeflyer]

I made a practice flight from VQPR to Lukla recently with the twin otter. I had a feeling the weather was going to be less than stellar upon
arrival in Lukla. My landing sucked but I got the paxs there in one piece.

Preparing to back taxi to RWY 33 Paro:



Enroute Lukla at FL230:


Looking at the overcast on the approach side of Lukla:


At least we all got there with no parts of the airplane left on the runway:



Another flight I wanted to try out with a CS B727-100 from ANAU to AGGH...also one of the routes on the world tour:
Taxiing to RWY12 ANAU:



Finally in position for takeoff:



Due to the light load, this 727 shot off the runway as if it had JATO bottles attached to the a-- end:



Cruising at FL320 and already picking up reports of thunderstorms in the area:



On descent to AGGH, the weather worsened with major thunderboomers looming over the arrival airport but vis. was good enough for a
VOR approach:


Having my hands full during a manual approach, I didn't get any screenies on the approach or landing, just the gate arrival:


Join the tour and see how much fun you can have

Wow that 727 is a very nice aircraft; is it freeware or payware?

I've had it for a while now but haven't used it yet

Just placed the .dll in my modules folder and printing out the manual now. Thanks for prompting me to do this...had forgotten I had the zip file for quite a while...doh!

Man, that Lukla scenery is great. I gotta practice landing at the default Lukla first, then I might consider getting the payware version. Great pics!
