British Midland Canadair out of Jersey on route to Bristol passing Guernsey, using real weather and time. What a nice re visit to this old bird, cracking model..tends to cruise in a nose down attitude is that normal?

The nose down attitude means you have it trimmed "on the step" which should give you best cruise speed for lowest fuel consumption - something akin to the "sweet spot" in a tennis racket :)

Nice moody shot by the way

You using ASv6???

Classic, that's why I love FS9. Since buying AS6 my flying experience has improved no end. Default FS clouds were just pants!

Sorry for seeming ignorant, but what's 'ASv6' please? Or V5 for that matter?

AS5 was the biggest load of cr@p known to man. All before and all after have been fine. Put another way, AS5 was the FS2000 of the 'weather world' :wink: I'm not surprised you run it Tony :lol:
