KenAir---Today's escape and adventure

KenAir is a fun and adventurous airline in Second Life.

The fleet consists of six aircrafts as of July 2015 owned and operated by Keneth Kranfel.

The main hub for KenAir is the SCS Airport located on the Frasier Island Region south of the Blake Sea.

I think the best thing about KenAir is that you get a human to talk to. It is not a mechanical script of the airline jargon you would normally hear.

You don't require a ticket, you don't pay $Ls. You may donate if you like.

For more information about flights please contact the owner Keneth Kranfel or PR Chief Anjelikka Galicia(Anjelikka) inworld.

KenAir adventures

Time for a helicopter ride with KenAir. We are going over Ahab's Haunt. (What's secrets will you discover as you set sail from Ahab's Haunt? Start near the massive leviathan skeleton and explore the surrounding seas, which are filled with sunken boats and even a submarine.)

KenAir has some new hangars installed, so come and stop by and ask for a flight with KenAir.

Flying Lessons 2

A new day and back to the review of knowing what controls to push and when....well almost.

This time the flight is at night with KenAir and Herr Kranfel is ready to let me copilot or is he? 
No wait, I can do this...this button or this one?

I don't think it took off the ground until Herr Kranfel took over the controls.
Not sure if he was tired from the flight or was he frustrated because the plane did not take off. I know it could not have been me, even-so he had to explain it several times.

Flying Lessons 1

Herr Kranfel was very generous and offered to show me once again how to fly a plane for Ken*Air.

I was explaining to Herr Kranfel how the wings and flaps work on the plane. ( I forgot to actually study for the test )I don't think he was too impressed with this.

Ok, so before I sit in the pilot seat Herr Kranfel needed to check the plane once more...Hey I said plane NOT me. He only speaks German and may have misunderstood this.

Let's see who gets there faster. I was reminded that all crew members must be fit.

Finally...I am flying. Yes, I know just a little over water, but I am flying. This was still the little plane and who knows one day I will be on the big one.

 Location: St Martin Airfield 

St Martin Airfield (SLSM)

It was a lovely afternoon to fly from Lago de Prata Airport to the small and charming destination of St. Martin Airfield.

Of course I had to negotiate again the price for this flight with Herr Kranfel. I think he settled after a few kisses and finally said " Ich nimm' Dich mit".

Just to make sure that Herr Kranfel would not run out of fuel again like the last time; I decided to try out my wings and help a little with the flying.

We did make it there in one piece.Whew!

St. Martin Airfield is a single-runway island airfield. You can read more about this here at Wikia. I hope you stop by this airport real soon and enjoy the beautiful sunset that you can see from the cafe and lounge.

I need to find some more methods of paying for new flight adventures with Herr Kranfel. I wonder if he takes chocolate as a payment? Hmmmmm....

Black Forest Hot Springs

This is a place that we will explore a little more the next time we have time. We just happen to take a little break and stumbled upon this place.

If you like WWII dog fights, then this is the place to go. You can fly the little planes and fight. We didn't get around doing this, but watched the others on this sim have a lot of fun doing it.

We did try our own planes and found out that our skills are nothing to scream about. Well, I did scream going down into the water.

I think Vauhn is going down...lol

Anyway go visit this place when you get a chance.

Here is the flight....

Plane Crash....

This is NOT the plane that is missing in the real world, just to make this clear. It could have of course disappeared into Second World since the Grid is so big.

Good thing we were wearing life- vests to save us. Micheal always thinks of everything before we go on a trip.

One of the few residents to survive the explosion and crash landing...and yeah there is land insight. Let's hope there are no Avatar-eating monsters here. :)

If you want to stop by and explore the island, take this FLIGHT
to 
~Santaurio~ The Lost Island
Set foot on the shores of Santaurio, explore the jungle, find the secrets, feel the relaxed environment of the beach and have fun in the Sandpit. 
Enjoy!

The art of flying

“Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.” 

Leonardo da Vinci

Ok...so I needed to try it out when I saw it. I mean how hard can it be to fly a plane?

The Aero Pines Airport is the perfect place to find out. So power up that engine and up we go.

Crashing......

I then tried something a little easier...this worked much better :)

Come and see me and I will give you this bike on a ballon :)

Flying

Woohoo, I got to fly my very first plane. In Second Life you can almost instantly fly a plane and never worry about crashing down to earth. You still crash, but all you have to do is dust yourself off and try again.
As a premium member you get some gifts once in awhile, so this one is a small plane that you can fly.
Needless to say it was fun.
