Sitting at the Calgary airport (flight delayed... grrrr...) and I see THIS pulling into the gate:

I just had to paint this on my PMDG 738...

Very nice! :)
On another note, has storm chasing mode kicked in for you this season yet?

No storm chasing yet. One of the things about Grande Prairie is that the weather is quiet moderate. We really don't get any big storms this far north.

Will be down in the Calgary/Brooks/Drumheller areas in July though... Maybe I'll get to see something thrilling then! :lol:

Keith,
Do you chase storms in the real world? I remember you mentioned it last summer but I thought you meant you fired up MSFS and chased storms with live weather, which I thought would be fun to do! We'll have to set up a "storm watch" and fly on teamspeak or vatsim sometime.

I don't "Chase" them per Se. But if there's one in the area you bet I'll be in the middle of it. Love the power of mother nature... so long as she's not flooding or blowing over MY house... :lol:

I do enjoy flying into the cauldron on FS as well. Haven't had much time for it yet this season, but will definitely have to get back at it soon. I'll get ole' squawk box up and running again and we'll see if you and I can hook up one day!

Yes sir, That's a repaint of the very plane I saw in Calgary yesterday. But I don't have an appropriate airbus in my fleet, so threw the livery on my 738!

We should, who knows, it may end up being a CVA tradition :)

No kidding? Drop me a line if you like. I'm back on shift and may have to head to Kindersly SK, but if I'm in town I'd be down for a meet and greet!
