BA 747 EGLL-KSAN FlightSimEXPO Kickoff!

To kick off the Flight Sim Expo, I decided to start this event with something special to me:

Everyone has that one aviation related moment that they’ll never forget. Out of all the things I’ve seen over the years, I take you back a couple of years to my first time visiting San Diego. I lived almost all of my life in Florida, I can say without a doubt the final approach into KSAN is absolutely amazing! A couple of days into my vacation there, my dad and I were walking near the harbor. I instantly recognized the sound of a large aircraft in the distance. Looking over my shoulder, there it was. On a beautiful summer day, British Airways 747-400 on final approach. I couldn’t believe it. Watching the queen elegantly float down to the runway over the hills is something I’ll never forget.

Here are the flight details,

I’m actually more curious on how you managed to get the old 737 cockpit…

Freecam traveled into the cockpit.

interesting… I always get the reworked cockpit with white screens (tho I don’t think I’ve tried on an another player’s 737 yet)

Man i wish I can and will be trying that route from EGLL-KSAN but it will be on a B787 since the B747-400 retired in the British Airways Fleet. But nice memory that you shared right there

Awesome photos!! I love the window shot!
