These are at or over various locations from the last week or two. I was flying into and out of Frankfurt a lot.

Flying north over Innsbruck:

This was Oberpfafenhofen. I scared the bejesus out of that Piper guy:

Wow, those screens look very nice. I'm using PII chips with 128 mb VGA cards, and about 512mb RAM, so my scenery looks like I have about four pixels on the screen, light blue for sky, green for terra, dark blue for water , and white for the aircraft. LOL. Yours shows supprot apparatus, tugs, lights, heck I think I even saw a pair of director beacons set on one of the tugs, nice shots, definitely inspires me too upgrade my free computers to newer used(hopefully free) computers.

And that's FS9! You can build a good computer cheap to run it.

That's all payware scenery and the DF727. FS9 scenery isn't as nice, but at least it's an airport.

I wish someone had some good payware for Prague.

A few shots from a just completed trip from Friedrichshafen to Augsberg. I flew this low at 8500' and hand flew it.

I didn't even need an enroute chart for this 100 mile trip. The SID from Friedrichshafen leads to the STAR for Augsberg. How convenient is that?

It was a pretty flight with all of the city lights below and only scattered Q.

Augsberg's runway is only 1280 meters, so this was a rare occasion for 40 flaps.

I had fun. Hope they can get around my tail at Augsberg.

Landing at Augsberg. Planted firmly and immediate full reverse as soon as they'd take it.
