hock: gotta lower the floats
I also like a nice flight with fs9 or fsx, expecially with the magnificent MAAM Sim R4D or C-47, reenacting the flights over the "hump" from Myitkina to Kunming, at night during a thunderstorm. I once even made the ferry flight for the C-47 from Florida, down the caribic, south america, crossing the "pond" over Ascencion Island to Africa, and then making my way to Burma. I based it on the book "flying the hump" by Otha Spencer. Quite challenging, when you keep it as realistic as possible (navigating, doing wind calculations and so on).
Cheers,
Mark
