Well, the old thread was slowing my computer down again (the way it always does by that point ), so here's the ew one. Thanks to a suggestion from kevinl1011, I decided to label this the Trijet Edition (yeah, I know mine aren't all 3-holers, but it would be cool to focus on them just for once!). Thanks, and as always, keep the good stuff coming!
To start:
Landing at KOA, Dash 8 (Island Air)
Damn AI plane stole my route! (PDX-SEA)
Climb through the sunset
Wooooowwww....
What else is there to say?
Landing at LAX as flight 6983 from FLG
At the gate with some bigger brothers
Awesome takeoff shot!
Showing just what the 717 is capable of!
Roaring overhead
On the gorund in HNL
Now for the real stuff:
Powerful rotation!
This thing doesn't climb. It gravitates.
Banking turn after departure
Apparently Hawaiian weather isn't always so beautiful. At least the plane is!
At cruise
Wave-skimming for real
Turning onto the approach to Kona
Runway in sight!
At the gate- Nice 717!
Getting some well-earned rest after a busy day of short flights within Hawaii

Er...it was actually the Batman who suggested 3-holers. But hey, if it involves the Tri-Star, bring it on!

OK - if it's tri-jets we want, then it's tri-jets we're going to get!!!
Another of my favorite liveries, the Aeromexico DC-10 (circa 1974) on RWY 5L in Mexico City (MMMX).

No three holers or helichoppers, but here are some moments from a flight in my e-Go (light sport / de regulated class currently in development) in the Misty Mountains...er...Swiss Alps.
Flying through the deep valleys
The ridge may look high, but this thing climbs like a whippet.
Descending on full airbrake and idle throttle
Landing in a stiff crosswind. The screenprint isn't clear, but look carefully and you may see the rudders are both deflected outwards to act as airbrakes.

Ok, here we go...
I absolutely love flying Jordan Moores' Bell 412 from Hovercontrol. It's the heli equalivalent to cpds' Concorde posted in the previous thread vol.IV. Realistic as they come.

AIRLINERS.NET CREW HEAD SCREENER
Hello FatmirJusufi
Specs as follows:
Vista 32bit, 2.40 gigahertz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2046 Megabytes Usable Installed Memory, NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX.
I roughly get between 25 and 30 fps shown on those screenshots. I rarely fly in big cities (LHR/JFK etc) as I much prefer islands etc.
