Start from water airport in addon: - Cold start: '1' in water (dock_GA), or '2' om land - Rwy-start, engines running!  |
| Tips "Parking brakes" - not for seaplanes! The plane moves by engine power and by wind. - ActivePause stops the plane. Still functioning are e.g.: Start engine with Ctrl-E. Stop with Shift-Ctrl-E. "Drone -flying" - click 'Ins' for On,Off. Move around with keys: W,S forth,back. A,D left,right. R,F up,down. Num-4,6 turn left,right. |
Some Start Alternatives: - From land to water Sart from land-ramp2. Drive plane into water, pull gear up (G), fly away. - From water to land After water-landing: drive plane to shore, put gear down (G), drive up on land. - IRL: In real life one often used small wagons and winches. |
| - MSFS - Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 - has best landscape. - Landing in rough sea too easy. - Carriers only in fixed positions. (2022 Jan) • MSFS Oldtimer aircrafts with Swedish connection, in Swedish, use browser translate function! Other Simulators - X-Plane 12 - has better flight characteristics and water interaction than MSFS. - Landing in rough sea difficult. |
Scenery Addons, some - Lighthouses Finland south coast, flightsim.to - Masts, "We love VFR", flightsim.to (Skip buildingcranes, rename .BGL to .BGL.OFF) - Stockholm/Bromma and POI, Marcus Nyberg, Orbx - Stockholm, GoogleMaps to MSFS, flightsim.to - Helsinki, 3D-model from town council, to MSFS, flightsim.to |
