thinking of doing some more long haul flights out of EHAM as it is one of the best 3D airports on infinite flight and has a vast amount of interesting and unique routes!
Let me know if you want to see any other flights!

Great choice of route! I had actually flown this the day before you, glad to see others giving unique destinations attention!

I like the shot of the take off, it contrasts well with the airport in the background. 🙃

Try the R36-S approach with a narrow body. Absolutely amazing.
