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.

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:

Woke up today in Scotland (Tuesday in the EU) and thought some fresh Danish pastries sounded good, so I took a deadhead over to Copenhagen (EKCH).

No RNAV approaches so far here, all ILSs, but the #Xplane #flightsim #Cirrus SF50 Vision Jet with G1000 handles them perfectly.

As soon as I parked, the ground crew moved in with their baggage conveyor rig. I guess they think the bags come out of my airplane's ass.

They just do things differently over here.

Sitting on the virtual ramp in Inverness, Scotland watching the sun come up after flying from Iceland to complete a North Atlantic crossing in my #Xplane #flightsim #Cirrus SF50 Vision Jet.

Going to bop around the EU for a while, but first I need to top off with Jet-A. Good price today on their virtual fuel here, $0.00/L which translates to USD$0.00/L.

I just need to find a pub and a pint or three.

Just blasted off from KEWR in my #XPlane #flightsim #Cirrus SF50 Vision Jet, bound for St. Johns, Newfoundland (CYYT). Doing the North Atlantic hop over to the EU to fly around for a while.

Screenshot is climbing out past NYC.

Haven't had my #XPlane #flightsim #Cirrus SF50 Vision jet up in a while. It was in for maintenance (in-op thingamabob).

Flew into Pangborn Memorial in Wenatchee, WA (KEAT) and after seeing the identifier, somehow I am hungry for dessert. Surely I can find some decent fresh Apple Pie around here.

RNAV approach was fun, a tricky five-turn affair thru a small valley of the Columbia River.

Parked next to another SF50 and yes, I do have wingtip envy.
