Matt_Smith 1116 Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 I was asked by the bar manager if I'd mind nipping over to Innsbruck to pick up a few kegs of Spitire ale he'd had specially imported. Being a huger fan of Spitfire, how could I possibly refuse? Preflight checks Easily airborn Hard right turn to avoid over flying ther gilder runway Climbing out to our cruise altitude of 10,000' Beautful views out over the mountains Has anyone tried fishing here? Looks a great place to fish Approaching destingation Peekaboo I see you FSX ATC, "make right traffic runway 26" Yikes couldnt I have had left traffic? Think I'll go for 26C Collecting the kegs of ale and loading up Back to Andras FIield, theres a water runway there somewhere? Phew made it Back home and unloading our newst guest ale Ladies and Gentlemen, we now have on tap: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_Smith 1116 Posted September 10, 2010 Author Share Posted September 10, 2010 Very nice story and pictures Matt. Really makes me want to fly one of these seaplanes myself next time. Thank you Do it, dont be shy, although, one to note, the water runway is damn hard to see on final, I cant see the bouys until Im almost ontop of them which makes for some rather interesting approach procedures I guess in time I'll learn from the surroundings, but certainly wouldnt like to try it at night!
