My latest exploits....

Flight was from LGAV - LGLM (Limnos) and I used the PMDG B1900D with EuroHarmony livery;)

Video

Made In Fraps and Windows Movie Maker
Music - Local hero | Dire Straits

Click here to watch EuroHarmony-Video


Here are the screenshots.

Rolling...



Take off...



Climbout...





In Greek Mythology, Icarus fell to his death whilst flying, after getting to close to the Sun...thankfully the Beechcraft 1900D we are using for todays flight is holding up nicely.

Entering Cruise...



Just over top of descent...



Woops...over-cooked that approach slightly...



Altitude and allignment problem solved...looking good on the PAPI.




Smooth touchdown with a bit of crabbing action to counter for the x-wind.



Thanks for watching, post some feedback.
The video was just made quickly, and isnt supposed to be a work of art, just to give you an idea of the flight.

Thanks for any comments, appreciated!

Very nice pics, and nice little flight m8 ;) I enjoyed the video too. The music is a fabolous choice I think. It could be a relaxing flight in that environment...I think the music mood just reflects that ;)

Nice flight, in my opinion the music doesn't fit. I would have opted for rebetiko... ^^

You know me :p
Hehe I know you are a Dire Straits freak, I like it too, but I keep thinking that the mood doesn't fit.
Don't force me to prove it ! ;D

Haha, I have to say though I'm happy that many people like Dire Straits, I know too many people with bad musical culture ;)
