Sky Tours "Odyssey" Mk II

Auto Credit Based on SkipperBing's Sky Tours "Odyssey"

Updated my Adventure Captain Sky Tours "Odyssey" been working on this for a while to get the balance just right. Level flight at 275 mph (75% throttle)

Rather than the faster-and-more-efficient vision of tomorrow, I have a dream of a time where leisurely activities will dictate one's day more so that their bills or bosses. And in such a time, the Odyssey will be right at home. Harkening back to the days of dirigibles and ingenuity when flight was still in its infancy, this craft is a "primitive" propeller-driven luxury sight seeing airbus. Large domed viewing ports and plush seating allow passengers to view cities, monuments, and natural wonders with a taste of adventure that the explorers of the sky once felt. Controls and handling best suited for low, gentle passes over scenic views.

    I feel ya friend. I posted zero things for over seven months. I travel for work so it seems I rarely get to relax and simply fly. I see where you're coming from with the leisure tours idea. I dream of this time as well haha.

    Thanks @Wakescar. Life has been far too hectic lately but I'm trying to not disappear.
