This is my rendition of the last international flight of Air Berlin from Miami to Dusseldorf. Every effort was made to copy the original aircraft as closely as possible.
Thanks to Air Berlin for 40 years of flight. Bye-Bye...
On Sunday, Air Berlin’s final long-haul flight arrived in Dusseldorf, almost nine hours after departing from Miami International Airport. Air Berlin flight 7001 was on final approach to Dusseldorf’s runway 23L, when the pilot requested permission to make a left turn in the event of a go-around. The aircraft then proceeded to fly a low approach over the runway at around 100-200 feet above the runway, according to Flightradar24.
The Airbus A330-200, registration D-ABXA, appeared to be making a final fly-over to commemorate this historic last day for the airline. However, during the fly-over, the pilot decided to pull the aircraft up and make a sharp left turn over the airport. For passengers and employees at the airport, this created a marvelous display, allowing the public to see Air Berlin’s long-haul fleet in action one final time.
Thanks to Thomas Ruth for his great model. I have been flying his models since day one with FSX, MSFS 98. MSFS 2000 & 2004.
