Now that we’ve entered 2022, I look forward to health and happiness for my loved ones, hope the viral pandemic leaves us soon, and eagerly await the early release of X-Plane 12. This blog has been updating for 10 years since December 2011; I hope it can continue for the next 10 years as well. Woke up early with nothing to do on the first day of 2022, so I decided to fly a bit in X-Plane 11 to commemorate the occasion.

Takeoff from Beijing Capital International Airport, flying a small loop from east to west over the city, gazing at the CBD skyscrapers in the distance, looking closely at the Bird’s Nest and the Western Hills, and then landing at Beijing Xijiao Airport.

Spotted the Tower of Buddhist Incense at the Summer Palace from afar; I’m feeling homesick..

Takeoff from Tokyo Haneda, circle the city, catch a glimpse of Tokyo Tower and Tokyo Skytree, then land back at Haneda.

The scenery used is as follows: Vegetation Library X-ASIA ZBAA Beijing Capital International Airport 1.0.0 CN ZBAD - Beijing Daxing Intl Airport (2020) 1.1.0 MisterX Library and static aircraft extension 2.0b Japan Pro 1.02 Note: Japan Pro’s default settings are overly detailed; it is much better to comment out the settings under Suburban houses in the Library.txt file.
