AVSIM's VFR Flight Center  - Reader's Comments

Right from day one we started getting comments from (mostly) enthusiastic Avsim visitors. It just seems like a good idea to have a place to post some of those comments, and some of the ideas and pictures you have sent us.

Keep it coming, we love it !!!     (This is all just to boast our egos of course ;-)  )

Oh, the latest comments are on top...... earlier ones, please scroll down !!!



May 19, 2001 Hello Francois & Aiden,
I just wanted to say thank you for the great idea and the work that you
have put into this site.  It really helps other people to enjoy flight
simming.
FWIW I have added a strong recommendation for your site in the
"recommended links & products" section (section 4) at:
        http://www.tooby.demon.co.uk/P_Assist_Home.html

Best regards,

March 29, 2001 I was looking at your flight plans and I see that they all seem to have waypoints.
I would suggest that you use some navaids instead of just waypoints.  This would make flying a bit easier especially for the newcomers to flight sim,
Thanks

March 27, 2001 Hello Francois
Thank you for the notice.
But there is a problem: I don't find the links to download standard *.pln flight plans for people that don't have FSNavigator v4. Is it possible to download them ? Or maybe these flightplans are compatible with FS nav v3 ?
Kindest regards
Lionel

(We are working on that Lionel.... thanks! Francois)

Asking pilots to send in their favorite short, VFR flight plan in .fsn
format would give you some ideas, that's for sure.  Too many for you to fly
yourself.  :-o  I guess you could post a file with all the .fsn's that are
sent in and get back a vote from us all.  Let us pick a favorite besides our
own and you'll get a great Top 10 list without having to fly 100 flights.
FWIW

Best, Rob

(Wonderful idea Rob, we'll try and get it going in not too distant future !! Thanks, Francois)
March 26, 2001 Hello Francois,
You might have a look at my web site and find the VFR flights we made
during the Eagle AIR Eurotour tours we have flown.
In the zipped files flightplan and route chart are included; eventually
I can provide the FSNav plans as well.
regards,

March 26, 2001 Well I think you have a great idea here! Thank you for your time and efforts.
I just flew your flight plan Olympia to Ranger Creek. I used real weather and the Abacus Piper Navajo. Well, I got to tell you the visibility was zero scattered clouds at 7000 and overcast at 11,000. This was not a VFR flight.
I attempted this flight 3 times, well that was enough! No way was I going to land, I couldn't even see the airport.

March 23, 2001 Hi Francois
I checked out the site, Great !! .......What an excellent idea

March 22, 2001 Hello Francois.
This is one of the best ideas I've seen for the Sim Community:-)
Excellent !!
I would suggest thought, that the plan's format is not for a payware
program, like NAVIGATOR 4x, but for a Freeware like Navigator 3x.
One can easily import those FP's in FSNaV4x then, if he has bought it.
That way you will have more People visiting the Site:-)
One Idea is to Upload .zip files with the FP in the format you are going
to Decide, 1 small screeshot of the trip, as well as a small .txt file
,letting the user know the special features of that area, and the
Freeware add on's one has to use, in order to enjoy the Ride.
Inside the .txt will be the names of those .zip's, so with a search at
the AVSIM Site , everything can be ready.
Greetings from Greece:-)
