I have weeks like those. You get to the end of it and realize that none of your actual plans have made any progress, and all you've been doing all week is running as hard as you can just to stay in the same place.
So, if anyone want to hear our news, prepare to be very bored!
It has been known! This week in Bath it will be clear every day for the next few days, and quite hot as well, 32C. I plan on sitting about doing as little as possible, maybe even less. I will be in London for one of those days and, knowing the city, it will be even hotter there.

Not on holiday, but i have just finshed painting 3 citation Sovereigns and 16 Citation Excels for AI traffic, all operated by CAAC for their navaids calibration work in China, together with some flightplans. And after that I thought I might sit in the sunshine for a while instead of behind a desk!
So, not writing here much, but active in the sim.
It's always fun to see your flights, and your choices for start and finish, and I too am a fan of the 737 classic, although I think I have only flown on four in my entire life, USAir from DCA to, I forget where, British airways to and from Paris CdG (the trip back to Gatwick was on G-BVNM, which I remember because it was in the "Pause to Remember" livery, https://www.jetphotos.com/photo/78329420, and the last one I remember was CSA from Prague to Amsterdam (KLM codeshare) in 1999, a 737-500, OK-XGE. I may have also take trips on them to Brussels in the 1990s, business and pleasure.
Thanks, Harry, I managed tp get it. Now that I see it, I'm fairly sure I have downloaded it previously. Not installed at the moment. I have very little instal;ed in Hawaii except for the payware Honolulu.
About 10-12 years ago I did some training in a C208 in Germany to activate a commercial rating that I then used elsewhere, and it was a lovely aircraft to fly, although it felt bigger than it was, if that makes sense. The Carenado model does do a good job of putting you into a C208. I also have the Feelthere Caravan, also pretty good.
The most immersive models for me have been the Dreamfleet Archer III, the sounds etc were excellent in that aircraft. I might have a 32-bit system somewhere in the attic that would still let me fly that one (it didn't survive the move to 64-bit architecture). The other is Yannick Lavigne's excellent DR400, again, the sounds in particular. Then these two Caravans.
Dedl showed off some lovely Northern France sceneries, and a Caravan would be a fairly good way to tour that region, quite a few hops to some nicely made airports.
Thank you for the change of location, somewhere off the beaten track!
Fantastic coverage of Northern France, Dedl (Dedl - abbreviation of "dedication"). I think we all perform short flights the majority of the time - the fun is in getting up there and back down - and France, Germany, and the UK are blessed with a good variety of characterful airports at each end of a 1-hour flight. I have a few of the old FS9 versions and they are all enjoyable visits, especially those from FSFrance (eg Rennes).
I'm presently in FS Geneva and now I'm thinking of taking my Hawker 400 (Eaglesoft) up to Rennes.
Thanks, Thomas and Dedl, for these glimpses into the FS world. I will have to fly in the far east again at some point, perhaps after I have painted some new AI for the region, the CAAC Citation Excel fleet that is a project in waiting. Their aircraft use a stylized Chinese font that I will need to "path" for any repaints before I even start, and that needs as big an image as I can find...
That flight from Lille to Caen is a nice litle hop. My days are quite busy and I fill in the gaps with an aircraft repaint and flightplans, or a short hop, and this flight is a great idea that I will also try, perhaps in a bizjet.
TAROM retired their A318s last year, so if any are left they will be either bizjets (if any) or Air France, who are still showing seat maps for the aircraft, https://wwws.airfrance.co.uk/information/pr…vions/a318-a319 and appear to have six left, F-GUGM->F-GUGR. With the arrival of the very capable "Airbus" A220/Bombardier CS I would have thought the A318 would disappear quite quickly, and perhaps also the A319. Evidently not! I was always quite fond of the look of the "minibus".
