Screenshot Discussion / What's your favourite aircraft and why?

« Last post by EHM-1465 Dominic on August 12, 2022, 05:50:30 pm »

I'd like to know what your favourite aircraft is out of our extensive fleet, and why that plane?

For me, it's the Boeing 737-400, one of our Museum planes:-

I love the 737 series in general, but I particularly enjoy flying the 737-400 because the first really impressive payware aircraft I bought was the FS2002 Dreamfleet Boeing 737-400, and I spent hours learning everything I could about it from the manual. It was such a step forward from the default planes, and getting to grips with the FMC was a delightful challenge

I'm using the Wilco 737 PIC panel merged with the EHO 734 model now, which is great fun and reminds me of my early days here at EHM when the Version 3 livery was the new look

When I get some time, I'm going to try and repaint the Wilco 734 model with the EHM V3 livery, but that's for another time. For now, I'm happy just to enjoy some flights in this beautiful Museum piece

So, what do you each enjoy flying, and what makes it special? Share your thoughts here

I'm glad to hear you're getting much better frame rates now Bruce - nothing quite as frustrating as Flightsim with the stutters!

Ironically I'm back flying with FS2004 - I never really took to FSX and I have so many addons for FS9 that I went straight back to it after returning to simming recently

I know the visuals would be better with a more modern platform, but I still really enjoy flying in my old familiar aircraft, like the Wilco 737 PIC and Flight1 ATR-72...

Thanks for sharing your first flight Bruce

Anybody else want to join in?

Hi, MY first flight with the group was on the 25th June 2007, IN A Beech 1900B , from EGLL to EGNM
In those days l was using a second hand HP computer with FS 2004, it was so poor l had to fly with all the settings at minimum, so was flying over ground with hardly any details , even then the frame rates of 10/12 fps,
According to my log I crashed short of the runway,. Here l am 15 years later and 2478 flights on the group, still enjoying my time with the group, and the friends l have made there, not being able to get about much now it is a great a pleasure to be able to fly about in the virtual world . l am using FSX now and have a much better computer so thing look a lot better

Best regards Bruce EHM-2131

Last week, I decided to recreate my first ever flight for EHM, 18 years on!

On 31/07/2004, I flew a Jetstream 41 from Manchester to East Midlands UK and began my career with EuroHarmony VA. The livery was different and the aircraft was a much less advanced model than we are used to now, but I remember that the experience was really exciting!

Here's a pic from the recreated flight, which I really enjoyed...

What do you remember about your first flight with EuroHarmony?

If you fly the new set of EuroBusiness Missions we've just added, then you'll get the chance to land an EHB 777 at LPMA - no pressure!

Looking forward to seeing your screenshots and flight reports

Announcements / It's time to celebrate 21 years of EuroHarmony!

Our wonderful VA has been running now for 21 years - that's an amazing achievement!

To celebrate this remarkable milestone we are going to have a bunch of new activities during the summer and autumn. We're starting off with a new set of EuroBusiness Missions, which will take you around some of the main financial centres of Europe and the Americas, in a bid to gain new customers for the airline. All the details are on the Missions pages.

These will be followed by new Missions for EuroCargo and EuroHolidays over the next few weeks. We hope you enjoy them!

Please post your Missions screenshots, feedback and any suggestions for the 21st anniversary celebrations in the Forum.

Haha, yes it is quite large indeed.
It used to be the lagest in NL, back in the days when that empty plot with that little lake inside was still part of the park. That bit was "returned to nature" in return for some other permits that eventually led to that outdoor swimming pool with giant spectacular slides, and a couple of horse stables plus a riding school. Those are the main attractors for the camping, and it has been fully booked during the high season for 5 years in a row now. People usually book their next-year holiday before they leave (otherwise they risk it is all sold out).
So yes, it is large, and the owner is making lots of money
