Some things just have to be done

After dark

At this time I ran into 2 problems - first the panel lights on this aircraft don't work! (I think because it's an FS2004 conversion). Luckily the 2D panel was OK
Where I planned to land

Then on arrival at SKVV there were no airport lights so I had to divert to SKAP nearby. Only after I completed the flight did I find out that SKAP is where the FAC A29s are actually based.

Happy landings all!

RE: North to South 25 - CBreuer - 09-09-2012
Hi Steve,
Very impressive looking pictures again. I love this Super Tucano. And you say it is converted from FS9, so this means it was originally done for FS9? Very good, I will have a look for it.
Nevertheless your pictures do look so real at some points that it is simply amazing what can be done with FSX. I will find out shortly on my own.
At least I have now a copy of FSX here around me - now I only need to order my new computer...

Thanks Christian
The FS9 version is available at avsim (and other sites I guess)
FSX takes a little getting use to - it took me a couple of months to wean myself off FS9, but once you've got the bug you'll love it!
