159th X-Plane.org fly-in (Papua New Guinea)

-return to picture archive-

 

This week's fly-in airport was picked by Snow, whose sunset pic from the Rapid City fly-in won him third place in our screenshot contest - click here to view the pic. This was our first visit to Papua New Guinea, but there had been one previous fly-in on the Indonesian side of the island, giving me an easy choice of starting location for my first flight. I kept the sim's clock set to real time throughout the fly-in, as the visibility was surprisingly good even at night thanks to the bright moon and clear sky.
