REX ( Real Enviroment Extreme) Always dishes up some nice surprises











Sun one side - Moon other


20 knot dead crosswind - I can handle that - Then is started gusting to 35 as i got lower!!!! Switched off the AP and went manual
Do we have company limits on Crosswind ?


On the ground and taxing - You can see the wind still pushing the snow off the wheels across the runway!


As Always - 3 engine taxi to save fuel


Time to wake the Ramp boys up

Hi, I downloaded and used it for a while. it works on FS9 and FSX, combined together with TOPCAT are great tools, but lately it make CTD with FS9 and I decide to no use it anymore. It does not mean that in you computer could work perfectly.
Best Regards from Argentina, and sorry for my terrible english.

Very nice pics Mike. I'm curious about the three-engine taxi. Is this a common RW practice? Are there procedures for it?
Thanks,
Rick

During the high Fuel Days - Qantas use to encourage it to save fuel, every drop counts.
We also now avoid running the APU's for hours on lay overs - We use GPU ( Ground Power Units) as Diesel is alot cheaper the Avaition Fuel.

The last Atlas B742 that came thought work was actually doing a 2x Engine Taxi!!!
Mind you he was empty - But still
