dMw January 2015 Fly in

DMW FLY IN WEDNESDAY 21st JANUARY



The January fly in will be a business trip from Bringeland(ENBL) to Oslo Gardermoen(ENGM) in Norway

The theme for this fly-in is Business jets or larger twin engine turbo prop aircraft like the default King Air, try to choose something no bigger than the default Learjet 45 (pictured above), the runway at Bringeland is on the short side so anything bigger could end up being a struggle.

Any pilots interested meet on the server and TeamSpeak around 19:30 GMT ready for take off at around 20:00 GMT. server details can be found here

[/SIZE]

We will be taking off from Bringeland on runway 8.  Flight time is roughly 1 hour with a cruising speed of 290 knots.  You can download the .pln file here if you wish to import it into the FSX flight planner, alternatively the flight plan is below:

DCT >> DOPUX >> Z135 >> ADOPI >> ADOPI2L

Before joining the server be sure to have all air traffic turned off otherwise you will see AI aircraft on the ground and in the air.  Also please make sure you have read the server rules (here) so you are aware of the do's and don'ts.

If your new to FSX this is a great opportunity to come and learn the basics, im sure any questions you may have can be answered.  

I hope to see you on the night, if you have any questions feel free to contact me or one of the admins or reply here

im in...btw guys fshost now works with both versions of FSX (original and steam) so having one or the other will not stop you from playing

Much of the OP made no sense to me at all, which shows just how clueless I am about FXS but I'd like to get involved and maybe have a go at this?

Of course you can, give me half an hour of your time Smilo and you'll understand what the OP means, let me know when your about between now and the fly in and I'll go through things with you

I would also like to tag along for this as have just purchased the game.

Can you let me know when you two will meet, so that I can learn the ropes too?

Hello guys.

I will be there for the fly in too, but I'd love to practice with you to get things running before the day.
I recently started MS FS again after years away. Installed the Steam version, got two A2A planes C172/Cherokee180 and a couple Carenado planes The Archer and the Bonanza F33. Edit: Yes the OrbX Norwegian scenery is great. I will get England and Scotland too. Cant wait...

I don't have anything that fits the description for this day, (I hate the defaults) so I would like to have your views on the following. I like small planes, I like less glass and more "real" instruments. I have no clue how to fly a twin or a jet. I have found a couple of planes I could go with, but I need your input.
The Carenado Beech B200, The Pilatus PC-12and the Sogata TBM850. I'm not sure if any of these can cruise at 290 knots (is that mandatory?), but this is the "type" of plane I could go with. Any other suggestions?

Not sure the 290knots is mandatory, it just gives an indication of the time the flight takes at that speed.  If you go slower then it will take longer (so take off a bit earlier and you'll land with us).

[sulky_uk]

The pc12 will  do 275, so maybe fly that as it will only add a few minutes to it.

i will be flying this which will do about 290

and when i got home i tried out out and i had oodles of room

Correct, 290knts is not mandatory, however the idea of the fly in is that we arrive at our destination in waves if you like (one after each other)

I would say a cruising speed of 210 minimum would be a good guideline, it won't be much fun being left behind.  Also the theme is business aircraft or luxury private aircraft.

People enjoy flying different size planes so each fly in will have a different spec of aircraft to be used albeit a rough spec
I plan on running at least one a month so everyone will at some point get a chance to fly something they prefer.  As Sulky says you should be fine with the PC12, we will let the slower aircraft take off first I think to give you a head start

..btw I will be around on TS tomorrow night from 7pm ish should anyone require any advice/guidance

Thanks I will be on if I can connect. Tried to connect yesterday, but FSClient did not find any sessions.

BTW I will go with a B200 as I have connections to that plane. (See other thread)

i tried and forgot to post, if we lose ts or any of the servers fshost will go down as well, but unlike most of them fshost wont auto start on the rack. Usually i just hudge oldie...but i forgot sorry..done now
