Ground vehicles

Post by speedbird591 »

I was looking for a driveable vehicle to buzz around the ramp in and keep an eye on my AI traffic. I found these two little beauties. I know they're not authentic to anywhere except Japan and Korea, but they're so well modelled and so much fun I thought I'd better not keep them to myself :worried:

Much easier to use than a helicopter for AI spotting :dunno:

Cheers Ian

Havnt been to his site in a while - and have been looking for an AI cruise liner to run around the hawaiian islands :)
The Pajero is nice too - Will go along with my LWB Rover I keep at the "The Ranch" - the only one in there I wouldn't
download is the longliner The Japanese form of fishing is frowned up in the islands.

That'd be a "spotters" standard, "Break-down" manoeuvre then!!

Not usually seen inside the perimeter, usually outside!

I sometimes use Hama's BMW for AI spotting but my favourite is his K2 ambulance :)

I also like to watch from my Mobile Tower parked at the 31 end :flying:

However, it is very hard to beat TrafficTools > Explorer :dancer:

I remember you showing us some pics of the BMW, Peter, but I have to agree that the K2 ambulance would have been my first choice too. Unfortunately the link seems to be dead at the moment :-( But I'll keep trying - it's even more totally crazy than that little Pajero :lol:

I've got Traffic Tools which I have learnt how to use for decompiling and compiling AI flight plans, but I can't find an Explorer function. Where should I be looking?

Don't worry about your condition, I have the same problem.....everytime I go to an airport and before a flight I have this terrible urge to inspect the runway in-between a/c landing and taking off!!! :brick:

Think I need help as I want a sound file for sirens for the fire-engine!! :$

Hmmm. I know you mean well, gentlemen - but somehow, realising that I might be as unbalanced as the rest of you is not quite as comforting as you seem to think ... Image

(p.s. If you find any sirens, Nigel, please let me know :lol: )
