Hi everybody. I recently went to Alderney, via Guernsey, and naturally wnted to recreate the flights in FSX....here are a mix of photos and screenshots for comparison:
Aurigny ATR72 taxiing out at Gatwick

and in FSX after departure

Back to Gatwick, while I wait in the lounge for my connection

The Trislander flight to Alderney takes 15 minutes - here climbing out over St Peter Port harbour

The "real" view I had

On final for Alderney, the white specks are thousands of Gannets from the colony at L'Etac - talk about a bird hazard!
