All I did was enter airfleets.net, clicked ‘Airplane’ on the right hand column, selected ‘Production List’, and searched by date, between 1983 and 1984 for each type. When the results were displayed I hit Ctrl-F (using Firefox,although I think this works with IE7 as well) and punched in 13/10. Hey presto, found my planes. Then just searched on Airliners.net by registration under advanced search.
Hope this helps 🙂
And for my date of birth, 13/10/1983:
Airbus A300B4-203, MSN 282
Glory Days:
Registered as TU-TAT with Air Afrique, and was written off 12/02/2000 on the ground at Dakar,Senegal when the lefthand main undercarriage leg was retracted during taxi.
Ouch:
Airbus A310-203, MSN 273.
1st Incarnation
Registered as D-AICL with Lufthansa, however, on 15/09/1994, she was converted to an A310 freighter, and registered with FedEx as N409FE,with whom she still operates to this day.
Now:

The morse code is used by Radio navaids such as VOR’s, ILS, ADF and the airfield’s localiser to confirm the frequency you’re tuned into. You can have these tuned in and use them without interfering with ATC, you just need to deselect that particular radio channel.
Just bring up the radio panel on either side of the throttle quadrant and make sure the buttons next to either NAV1, NAV2 and ADF aren’t glowing green, if they are just click on them. Easy.
yah…if that deal does go through, the Thai Flankers will be known as SU-30MKFC.
I doubt it. With Thailand being a loyal ally, I’d imagine the US aerospace industry would cry fowl over such a deal………….:D
Taxi’s on it’s way. 🙁
You can imagine the headlines the day after can’t you:
Ethiopian firefighters left with severe case of the munchies after suffering the effects of smoke inhalation.
Had to laugh at the news on TV last night.. quoted the emergency as an Airbus 330 and showed a Jetstar B717 landing with passengers deplaning
What did they do? Tuck, roll and hope for the best? 😀
Just a couple I’ve dugout from the screenshots folder to keep things ticking over. I’m forever taking Screenies in FSX without thinking about it to be honest.
One taken during the cruise over the Caribbean with KLM, en route from St Maarten to Miami.

And a couple taken en route from Liverpool (my nearest airport) to Almeria, Spain in the superb Level D 767-300ER. It got pretty choppy over the Pyrenees, with rising thunderstorms causing some pretty violent turbulence to make for an interesting ride!

Howabout they ditch the roo and replace it with some of those blonde babes from Neighbours in bikinis ??? You could get a lot of them on an A380 !:rolleyes:
As long as they squeeze Holly Valance in there somewhere, consider it seconded!
Perhaps this could be a job ideally suited to the stop-gap SU-30K’s being returned to Sukhoi from the Indian Airforce now that the deliveries of SU-30MKI’s are picking up. The oldest of them date from about 1998 as I recall, so they should have plenty of hours left on them.
Surely the fly by wire system wouldn’t have allowed them to deploy just one thrust-reverser? I’d have thought that in the event of one reverser being disabled, they’d have taken them both offline to prevent asymmetric thrust from causing the aircraft to lose control. :confused:
I took these this morning whilst experimenting in free flight. Since the Overland models aren’t that particularly sophisticated and lack autoland, I was trying to balance the aircraft using the trimtabs in order to get it to make a smoother touchdown when using the default ILS, which’d probably make you jarr a few fillings the way it slams down.

Bringing the big Boeing to a halt.

Two of my favourites I’ve dug out from my FSX screenshots folder this evening.
Climbing out from Stevens International, Anchorage, Alaska en route from Los Angeles to Seoul.

And testing my Overland 777-300ER ported across from FS9 OK over Friday Harbour, Washington

They seem to have ported over OK, although there is an issue with the backup instruments in 777-200ER & 777-300ER, as well as the radio stack being missing in all Virtual Cockpits, although I can use it in 2-d mode. Hopefully though, with the release of a patch for PSS 777 Professional, I can blend the Overland external models with the cockpits, and perhaps do the same with the PMDG 747-400 too to fill in the gaps.
