Class 1 Aircraft

[EHM-0240 Joe]

As we are all having to fly class 1 aircraft again, I thought it would be nice to post some pictures of these planes in action. Once we are all promoted to bigger aircraft, no one will be interested in posting pictures of turoboprops, these pictures may not be spectacular, but in my opinion, these planes are far better than the 747s or 777s.

If anyone else has taken pictures from the other class one aircraft perhaps you could add them here. I decided to use the Jetstream for my first flight.

A rather steep descend on the last picture don't you think?

I used the Dornier 228-100 for my first flight from ESSA to ESSV.
This is a shot just before I started my engines. A historic moment.



The next day I did some flights with the Beech 1900 when I shot this one returning to ESSA

Great shots anvaco! oh yeah just curious to know, does fs2004 leave the engines shut when you load the flight or do you have to shut it and save the flight before loading again like in fs2002?

A few weeks ago I was on a KLM 744 in the cockpit, and our rate of decent from FL390 to I think FL220 was 4850 fpm. Now THAT's steep;D

Much the same. You create a flight, stop the engines, then save it as the default flight. Your engines will be off on new flights from that point (and so is the first thing I do with each new FS install...)

I changed some lines in the FLTSIM.FLT file. So everytime I start a flight the aircraft is completely shut down.

It's the same procedure as in FS2002

[EHM-0962 Zhen Yi]

so it only has to be done once per install? sorry but i was under the impression that it has to be done with every flight

Not if you apply the reg tweek or set the default flight...

[EHM-0188 Andy]

Only once per install, and if you backup that file, only ONCE ever.

Here's my file FLTSIM.FLT

Unzip and copy this file to your "FS9\Flights\Other" directory

Backup your original FLTSIM.FLT !!!!

I made modifications to Engine 1 and Electrics to shut it all down.

ok thanks a lot but i'll only be using it when i get fs2004 at the end of this year!

Very nice pics! I flew my 'first' flight today in the Beechcraft 1900D from Leeds to Newcastle. You may have noticed my avitar pic which is actually from before the big crash, just to remind me of days past. Not too bothered though as I enjoy flying these little beauties! Who is with me!
