  • Friday Night Flights: The Great Lakes (9:00pm ET)

    Summary
    [From Wikipedia..]
    The Great Lakes began to form at the end of the last glacial period around 10,000 years ago, as retreating ice sheets carved basins into the land and they became filled with meltwater.[7] The lakes have been a major highway for transportation, migration and trade, and they are home to a large number of aquatic species. Many invasive species have been introduced due to trade, and some threaten the region's biodiversity

    New plane available for this flight! An initial release of the Beriev Be-103 is on my OneDrive. I'll be flying it tonight, so download if you want to fly it too or just to see me! Very easy install: just unzip and copy one folder to SimObjects\Airplanes. You'll find it in "Modern Oddities". I shall be testing it more fully this weekend and adding a few things, so expect a full v1_0 release very soon.

    This unusual modern Russian amphibian has sponsons built into the wing roots.
