Good Day to all,

Some pics from the fantastic Fly-in last night, well done to the LPPT HUb captain Ricky for making this event for us. I cant wiat for the next LPPT event!

Today I flew my Boeing 737 BBJ, I wanted to fly my EuroHarmony BBJ2 which Roert painted but i had a corrupt file in the 738/9 library.



"Robert, Give us a wave!!"







"EuroHarmony 1343 rolling"







Now for the descent and approach.

The FMC is configured to leave the hold after passing EKMAR and we will proceed to CP for the ILS approach 03.



I think that is Peter ready to enter the EKMAR hold.



"EuroHarmony 1343 fully established ILS 03"





Another EuroHarmony Pilot makes a nice approach to 03.





Hope you guys like them, comments welcome!

Those are hard to follow! Good shots. Nice Madeira scenery.

Here's mine:

Because I was late due to another committment, I missed the big line-up at Funchal. Luckily I got away quite quickly. My 738 sitting at the gate with some other EHM planes.


Franz spins round his A330 (not easy at all)


The convoy departs


Franz departs and I start my backtrack


My new water textures


That's a lot of planes


Cruise at M080 FL380


Catchin' up


Land ahoy


Holding


Shiny!


Leaving the hold


On the localiser, but no ILS clearance so a dive-bomber approach followed.


Flare!


At the gate in my rubbish LPPT scenery (must get a better one).


EDIT:

d**n. Had the host set on 256kb picture limit for some reason, so it's resized them all but a few. Don't know why I had set that option before.

Great pics!

It was my 1st Fly In with EuroHarmony and I enjoyed it very much - the departure and the final - great perfomance of the controllers at LPMA and LPPT and highly professional and very symphatic pilots - I'm proud and pleased to be member of this VA and looking forward to the next Fly In.

It was indeed a great fly-in! I really enjoyed it! I didn't know I was that far ahead of you people when I looked at IVAE!

Hi all, thank you for coming to this event. I am seeing you liked it very much. The next one is already being prepared so that it can be a sucess again.

Razza: You have very nice shots. I would like to have a machine like yours :( It was one the reasons I didn't fly with you. Keep god job taking shots like these ones.

Iain: Like Razza you also have nice pictures of this event.

Thank you all one more time :)

Any doubts or ideas, please contact me.

Regards :)

It surely was a great event! It definitely was one of the best events I've been to!

Ricardo, can I request something about the next event? Could we have it a bit earlier, because alot of us (I think) landed around midnight, which is quite late, so could we please have it about one hour earlier lets say?

Hi Matt :)

I've already thought about that and discuss it with some pilots. The better I can do is half an hour earlier. Because 2000z is too much early :%. However I can think about that for the next event in order to make departure time good for everyone ;).

My water textures are freeware Rico. Run a search for fs9wat.zip. Some like them, some don't, they are very reflective and can look beautiful though a little overpowering close up. Make sure your water FX slider is at Max to use them correctly.

Hey guys!

To see such a straight and rich string of EHM aircrafts is very, very rare, and all my thanks to all ATC controllers who did a great work for us.  This was a fantastic fly-in and with all my compliments to Ricardo for great job so well done.

The pictures are very good indeed and thanks to photographers that they took them, even there was a lot of piloting regarding to the overcrowded skies.

Hey, when is the next one?
