I know that blog entries about flying are not that popular, more so the ones revolving about a civilian (non-combat) flight simulator. But the man needs to fly. One of the thrills I want to experience in the virtual world is a tactical landing with a big bird.
These are pictures of my flight towards the practice area, in an undisclosed location in the great state of New York (US). Very nice flight so far, the C-130 handles like a charm.

Hey JC, is that a SOF Herky?
Je, je! No. It is a refueler listed as a C-130 in the simulator's menu.
For the record, blog entries about flying are and always have been my favorite, so keep 'em coming. :)
I don't care much about Strike Fighters 2 or similar "arcady" sims, but I have much enjoyed your entries on DCS A-10C, Black Shark, and other great posts such as those about the importance of "angle of attack", and I look forward to more of that. I'm sure I'm not alone in this. Keep those flight entries coming!!
By the way, what sim are you flying this C-130 in?
Hi Greg and Johan,
Roger and thanks. The fligh simulator is X-Plane 10. Stay tuned.
