As I finally renewed my subscription, I decided to do a route with Air Calin’s A330-900, something I wanted to do right as I couldn’t play IF Pro anymore. This time, I flew from Singapore Changi to Nouméa La Tontouta, New Caledonia–a roughly 8 hours and 30 minutes flight, flying above some of Indonesian islands and Australia. This for me, is quite a beautiful flight, flying from a dense urban city, overlooking the Indonesian jungles and the Australian parks, towards a medium-setting city.
At the gate before pushing back, with a Korean Air B777-300ER pushing back, and a Singaporean B737 who just arrived.
Rotating, at the middle of 02L bound for Nouméa with tower just behind it.
Above Darwin, Australia, cruising at FL350.
View from the window seat, cruising at 35,000ft above Kakadu National Park within the NorthernTerritory of Australia
Overlooking the Mitchell River at Queensland, Australia, still at FL350.
Leaving the Australian land, gazing over Cairns before entering the Coral Sea.
Flying just above eachother with a 1000 ft. seperation, one is bound for Bangkok and one is bound for Nouméa.
From the lens of an plane spotter, is the A339 turning right heading 107 in final for Runway 11 at Nouméa Airport.
At final approach, with gear down and having just captured the localiser, 180kts and 1900ft.
Back-tracking runway 11, back towards the gates.
“That’s my plane,” the Air Calin A339 makes a right turn for the gates and is witnessed by ones at the parking lot.
One of my favorite flights so far, beautiful scenery + aircraft + livery + me not doing this overnight = successful and satisfying flight.
