I can just imagine some of you quietly smiling when you read that I intended to try an ultralight at Paro! I opted for a little more comfort, but of course, a single engined prop aircraft is not a happy chappy at that altitude!
There is some pretty nice FS 9 add-on scenery for Bhutan. I usually go in there with a Dash-7, but have also tried the old Herc, an F-27 and a DC-6B. My success rate is currently up to about 65%, not good enough for insurance purposes! Druk Air started flying jets with the BA146 and moved on to the Air Bus. There are also some clips floating around with a B737 where Boeing competed with the AB. By the way, if you manage to land, ensure you have enough fuel to get out of the country as there is no fuel available!
Hi Hy.
Thanks for that info. I see that they have now released an FSX version at the same price. Unfortunately, some feedback suggests that important visual cues used by real pilots are missing. Not good for dedicated software.
