Just finished ferrying a crated Bell 47G from Tulsa Oklahoma, to Kaitak, Hong Kong in FSE. Took 5 days and 5 planes. Whew. Last time I did something like this, I took a Piper Dakota from Phoenix to Australia. I continued on southwest though India, and island hopped through Malaysia.That took a bit longer. Sometimes you have to really work, to get your plane where you want to work it. LOL Sue

Brilliant, Sue! I especially liked the Vancouver to Vancouver leg. 1000$ an hour for 0 miles of flight. Nice work if you can get it.  |

I have no idea where that came from. I didn't cruise around for a while, and back track. Beats me.
UHMA to UHMP is odd too. It was a 2 hour flight...
LOL

You do get around - afraid my simming is much less ambitious. Airborne long enough to get some screenies or, if I do venture forth, a lot of slewing to get me there. Don't actually land very often and then it's usually less than screenshot worthy. The sim is harder than real flying especially in this area.

I'm addicted to Flight Sim Economy. I wanted an aircraft in the far east, and this was the only way to get the Bell there. The alternative was to sell mine,and buy one in the Czech Republic. It would have been a really long way to Hong Kong at 90 knots ias.
I have 6 in my fleet - a Beechcraft Twin Bonanza 50 in the southwest US, a Bell 206B in Queensland, Australia, a Eurocopter Colibri EC 120 in England, a Piper PA-23 Apache in Alaska, a Spartan 7W Executive in South America, and the Bell 47 G in the far east. Need to buy something in Africa, and Russia to expand my explorations..

LOL Just sold the Bell 47 and picked up a Robinson R 44 in Turkey. Never flown in Turkey before. Most of my flying is for FSE.

I was in Turkey once. It was pretty cool. Traveled by bus, mostly.
