Lakehopper es un curioso videojuego en el que montas tu propio hidroavión para trabajar como transportista.

Las bases jugables de este videojuego, que tiene versión nativa para Linux, son tanto la simulación de vuelo como el mantenimiento de nuestro aeroplano.

Still bopping around the EU in my #Xplane #flightsim #Cirrus SF50 Vision jet. Took off from Salzburg, Austria, and here I'm on final approach flying the ILS to RWY 24 at Naples, Italy (LIRN). I believe really good pizza is what's for dinner.

My pax are here for seven days, so I might rent something interesting and go explore Sicily VFR. They have a sweet G1000 172 Skyhawk on the line here, €160/hr (Hobbs) wet.

Flight sim is *pretty.*

Thought I'd run the #XPlane #flightsim #Cirrus SF50 Vision jet down to France today to try getting it into Courchevel (LFLJ) which is tricky. Only 1,759' long and you land uphill, takeoff downhill into a deep valley.

Rented a virtual XCub near there, bopped on down and it was an absolute BITCH to land there in real-world winds. Did 3 go-arounds.

So no freakin' way I'm taking the jet into there. Although many turboprops can land there...here is a PC-12 video:

Lakehopper looks like a wonderful casual seaplane flight simulator

Fancy a new type of simulator? How about flying your own seaplane? Lakehopper has launched into Early Access on Steam with Linux support.
