Used addons for this flight
-Papy's Bar space station
-[ame=http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=3210]DeltaGlider UMMU[/ame]
-the level 10 Earth
-Orbiter sounds 3.5
Launching from Baikonour, suddenly i remember to notice my altitude in comparison to my flying angle
Trying to correct the vertical acceleration, i look into the nice view.
Managing an orbit, above the Baikonour area
Floating on orbit for some time, just admiring the view, Orbiter sure looks really pretty.
Now time to get to the station, a look into the MFD show how much my plane is not aligned at all with the station one, as i did not even tried to launch in a correct window.
Using the plane alignment MFD, with some normal+ and normal- used when told, finally the planes are now correctly aligned.
I always like to look at that good old Earth from orbit, always a great view.
Creating an interestection while using the Orbit Synchro MFD, it seems i have some good opportunity in +/- 8 orbits, as i am not in a hurry it will do.
Closing the intersection zone, we finally manage to see the station on visual
A bit nearer now, after some failed attempts , as i was a bit too enthousiastic on my speed.
Finally moving in a correct position thanks to the docking MFD, i waited some time before taking the screenshot though, as it was a bit too dark when i was done and it was not very nice as a visual.
The final approach, very easy from the previous position, just need to control the speed.
Docking on Papy's Bar, let's see what we can eat and drink up there
The last screenshot, just a different view of the docked DG and the Papy's Bar
Really an awesome piece of simulation, thanks again Martin, you basically allowed one of my inner child dream to come true
