A Cold, Dark, Canadian Morning to a Sunny Day in South Korea

TORONTO to SEOUL

So for the last week I’ve been doing a lot of Ultra-Long Haul flights, about a week ago I flew Toronto to Seoul, I used the Air Canada 787-9 which is used in real life. I took off from Toronto around 6:30 AM and flew Northwest over the Western Territories of Canada, the sun rose, and slowly went back down as we approached the Arctic Circle and flew over Northern Alaska. We crossed the West Coast of Alaska over Nome and flew down the East Coast of Russia, over Japan and flew west into South Korea and Seoul. I landed almost 24 hours after I left on a cold morning in Seoul.
Flight time was 13 Hours 11 Minutes which was disappointing as my longest flight was only 8 minutes longer than that, but I have that record broken now :).

The sun starts to rise as we over fly the town of Cochrane, Alberta, just west of Calgary

The sun rose and quickly fell back down below the horizon but we had a great view of the Moon over Northwest Canada, Alaska and Northern Russia

After the sun rose again we fly over the North East islands of Japan over the mountains of Higashikawa

The northern islands of Japan have some great views with mountains and beaches side by side

As always please let me know your thoughts and your favorite photo

When was Air Canada’s first 787 delivered?

• May 2014
• October 2018
• June 2016

The answer to yesterday’s quiz was Eastern Airlines and British Airways, which only 9% of people got correct!

A Snowy Day in Minnesota to a Clear Day in Paradise

MINNEAPOLIS to SEATTLE to KONA Yesterday I had the random feeling that I really wanted to fly the 757, and I obviously wanted to fly into Kona like I always do. (The 757 is easily my favorite plane, prove me wrong) so I looked for some routes and found that I could fly Minneapolis to Seattle, which Delta flies with a 757 in real life, and then Seattle to Kona, which Delta also flies in real life with the 757. I took off from a Snowy Minneapolis (yes, it was actually snowing there, so it’s reali…

I’LL SEE YOU GUYS TOMORROW!

Hi, nice pics you got there

[NoahM]

Hi, thank you 😂

[KennedyTurner]

The gear tilt really got me. I wish it would stay that way when you put the gear down😂

[Mr-plane-guy1]

Wow!!! This pictures is just incredible! The topic is very well made with loads of great views, including fantastic wing views and landing lights!

Also really interesting explanations too. You can see the work that went into it and the results are fantastic, thanks for sharing, looking forward to the next topic!

Amazing! I’ve seen you’ve been doing more long hauls! I like it!

[NoahM]

Yeah, it always looks like that right when you put it down and I really wish it would stay tilted too :(

[NoahM]

Thank you!!! I actually had 3 but tat was the best :)

[NoahM]

Thanks! When you fly North in the winter, there’s a lot of darkness so there’s plenty of moonshots to take 😂

And I’m really happy it’s notable that I’m putting more work into these I’m really trying to spend more time and make these more detailed, and that’s why I’m also adding the questions at the end

[NoahM]

I mean… the past week I’ve flown

(Hours:Minutes)
CYYZ-RKSI (13:11)
RJTT-KLAX (8:45)
CYYZ-LLBG (9:07)
OTHH-KPHL (13:41)
NZAA-KORD (13:05)
KMSP-KSEA-PHKO (7:45) that probably doesn’t count though
RJAA-YPPH (9:35)
SCEL-YSSY (13:39)

But when I’m flying all of these long hauls, it actually makes it a lot harder to post because I’m covering so much of the world in one flight. That’s why I sometimes don’t post a flight until almost 2 weeks after I’ve flown it, if I fly Toronto to Tel Aviv and Doha to Philadelphia around the same time (which I did) I have to separate them because most of the pictures are going to be from Europe

Nice pictures!

[Murphy]

Nice pics 👍

[Aero]

Nice pictures! I always look forward to seeing your posts each day, its like a highlight 😂

[NoahM]

Thanks @Siddhansh and @Murphy!

[NoahM]

Haha I’m happy that it’s a “highlight”, thanks! 😂
