January 30, 200422 yr Well, my experience with the online gaming is, even if you have all settings on realistic, with detecting a crash and such, you won't "crash" or destroy if you, as you suggested, land on somebody. There is apparently some kind of protection, because I logged numerous number of times onto Heathrow and was on the same space as someone else, and it did not kill him or me. It's another story though if I were taxiing, and someone bumped into me or I bumped into him. Then FS would detect a crash.So...go figure :)
January 30, 200422 yr To prevent any mechanics and finance advisors of the airlien getting mad...why don't you fly into LOWW or wherever from somewhere else..thus you can see everyone clearly and park at a nice spot...free of other traffic[P CLASS=style1]Kind Regards,[/P][P CLASS=style1] Matthew Murray[bR]Precision Manuals Devlopment Group [/P][P][sPAN CLASS=style1] :-rotor -|http://www.precisionmanuals.com|-:-rotor[bR][/sPAN]http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/supporter.jpg[/P]
January 30, 200422 yr This is a great idea. I think I'll make a short "preflight" from Graz to Vienna first. Takes not more than half an hour or so.But now for a tech questions, which we will all need:How to reset the FMC once landed? For the next flight?and...Refuelling? Should we just manage with fuel settings in FS2004 menu or is there some alternative?
January 30, 200422 yr Hola Kostas,just go to your FMCs RTE Page1 and delete the departure airport icao (I think its L1).But I
January 30, 200422 yr Well, about fuel, there is this yellow rectangle, I was always wondering what that does. MS says it's refuelling point...but never really tried it...And one more thing - shall we all fly realistic time, meaning FSim set to 1900Z or each however he wants? I myself am going to try to pick the time so that it gets dark upon arrival to Berlin...
January 30, 200422 yr Forget about the yellow rectangle as you will be directed to a Gate or Parking-Position (the "yellow rectangel" is at the General-Aviation area most times).I ment refueling via the "aircraft/fuel" in the MSFS-Menu.FS-Time is up to you. If you want to see the beautiful Alps then set it to day (maybe like that you will arive in berlin in the dusk...thats really great) otherwise to realtime - whatever you
January 31, 200422 yr Great Info Art, Thanks a lot. It's going to be a lot of fun.See you all at LOWW.Bruno Francescoli.
January 31, 200422 yr Well guys, I wish I could join you, but my FSing computer is dead :(Good luck to ya!
January 31, 200422 yr Holding at KTP Due to traffic, I took lot of pictures.This one is one of the many:Bruno Francescoli.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/60577.jpg
January 31, 200422 yr Yes, great traffic but unfortunately ATC was kind of overcharged by the mass of pilots (there also was a flyin to Zurich from Israel) and some traffic was diverted to munich due to overload.Anyway there have been nearly 40 PMDG Pilots including Lefteris and it was a really intensive ;) ahh...err experience.Maybe next time betterArthttp://www.edbb.org/tmp/pmdg/img/screens/1.jpgadvance guardhttp://www.edbb.org/tmp/pmdg/img/screens/3.jpgat the gate at Viennahttp://www.edbb.org/tmp/pmdg/img/screens/4.jpgdeparted viennahttp://www.edbb.org/tmp/pmdg/img/screens/5.jpgTheres something going on ;)http://www.edbb.org/tmp/pmdg/img/screens/6.jpghttp://www.edbb.org/tmp/pmdg/img/screens/2.jpgAbout to pass munichhttp://www.edbb.org/tmp/pmdg/img/screens/7.jpgShortly before arriving LSZH on highspeed with HB-IIP following just some miles.Sorry...no time for more screens...
January 31, 200422 yr What a flyin!, the amount of traffic was overwhelming!, can't wait for the next one! ;)
January 31, 200422 yr This was AWESOME! A great great thing. So many flyers, total "feeling", I must say. It's all about the a/c and that you are in the group! ATC were overwhelmed yes...:) But it was a "real" world. Of course, in reality, I think there are more than 2-3 ATCs at one airport. But nevertheless... This should be repeated for sure! Maybe next time some better timing, so that guys in US could also play with us...Anyway, a bit description...When landed into Vienna, there were already like 15 people on the airport. If they were in view, FPS would drop veeeeeery much :(...down to 9-10fps. We need some better CSL models! :) But kept them out of the view, so everything was fine. Take off...beautiful flying into dusk...and then, hearing reports from Zurich being overloaded. ATC starts holding a/c at KPT. Some of them got a bit confused, as can be said from the screens *lol*, kinda chaos hehe... After looooooong wait, finally got cleared for approach and landing. Sadly, after that, not many people went to Berlin, I was alone almost all the way...Or maybe they went before me though.Well, all in all, it was great enjoyment and I am already looking forward to be flying such organized flights again!And now for some screens :)http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/60612.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/60613.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/60614.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/60615.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/60616.jpg
