Revolving the old Back up Hanger of mine, I found several treasures lost in the time...and found the right one for my next leg of the Japan Tour: the Argosy. Thanks to Rick Piper, of course! my kudos to him for this plane. I had some cargo to deliver this time. So I take it easy: final destination Tokyo Haneda. To climb over 11000 feet, heading east-north-east to avoid the Fuji and to have the chance of flying over the water for a while.   The visionary work of Mr. Piper is all visible in the high quality of the VC!  The Fuji! and clear skies at 80 nm of Haneda (but that wont last...)  Visibility low...business as usual!   |

Now that this thread has been resuscitated, it gives me an opportunity to ask Damien....Why the tree as the Windrunner Cargo logo? Bruce Bruce that one is a fantasy repaint; windrunner cargo does not exist! lol. Well, it does in FS. Trees are excelent subjects for a logo! and I created that image after I saw the "Tree of Gondor" in the Lord of the Rings trilogy; actually that Lucky tree is a variation of that Gondor's tree and is painted to all "my" fleet now from the smallest Cessna to the biggest Boeings! ( funny thing is my family name means "Root", and in a way, I always liked the idea of a tree as a simbol).   |
