Hello fellow Sim-Aviators!
Today I wat you to take part of a short flight from and to Frankfurt Main Airport (EDDF) with our DC-4, operatred by Persian Air Services, wich we recently have restored successfully. All my Screenshots are taken straight out of the Sim (FSX) without further editing. Well... let´s go!
Here you can see the EP-ADT at her Parking-slot A18 at EDDF
And from the other side
Final call for Boarding!
Preparing for Take-off
Another exciting view
Pushing back!
All engines fired up!
Released from Pushback-Truck
Taxiing out to Runway 07C
Fellow Classics on the Ramp
Long way to be taxied
2 Connies!
Home of the Lufthansa
Still taxiing
Holding position on Runway 07C
Aaand... Airborne!
Gear up!
Positive climb
Flaps up, climbing out of EDDF
Not so busy today
Still climbing
Power Settings as seen on the Gauges from the left Seat
Circling around EDDF for Runway 07L
Crossing the Main River
Full Flaps!
Turning to Rwy 07L
Gear coming down!
Smooth touchdown on Main-...
... and Frontgear
Taxiing back to Ramp
Crossing the A3 Motorway
Re-entering EDDF
Cooling off the engines
Engines off!
Resting on the Ramp
You propably realized that not only the Plane-Textures have been changed. I have also overworked the egines in the following way:
Default Texture for the Patt & Whittney R-2000 Radial engine
-2020-dec-1-097 by Hartmut Hekmann, auf Flickr
"Not bad, so far." I thought, but it could be a little updated. So I made this:
Texture made with Pictures of actual Cylinders of an R-2000
I hope you like what you see and a visit a our site:

would be very much appreciated!
More to come!

Nobody seems to be perfect, BTW ...
I´m definitly the last person pretending to be perfekt. Best proof here!
