January 25, 200323 yr Ditto!!Snuck out a little ahead of the main pack from YSSY (slowly PIII-600 can't handle all that traffic) and made it in only 9 minutes late to KSFO with a total flight time of 13:52. Got there just early enough to see the "string of pearls" coming in to KSFO around 2000z.Awesome job by Mike B and the rest of you guys! The Oceanic control worked great (hope there were no near-misses :-))Let's do this again soon.Damonp.s. anyone know how to REALLY get the CSL a/c working? I have that VIP or whatever thingie too but I am seeing waay too many of my own a/c around the airport, along with that ugly green/yellow/white default paint job.
January 25, 200323 yr Have to echo what everyone will agree was probably the best one so far! Even though I just snuck in and flew little short hops, it was quite an experience to just be in the same airspace with that many fine pilots and controllers!A special thanks to Mike B., who is the crazy nut who puts these things together, along with everyone on else who pitched in on the logistics of this massive, well-organized event!The controllers deserve special credit as well, all were impeccable during this event!It really makes me proud to say that I've flown with the best this hobby has to offer, both on the ground and in the air! :)Regards,Steve Dra Regards, Steve DraGet my paints for MSFS planes at flightsim.to here, and iFly 737s hereDownload my FSX, P3D paints at Avsim by clicking here
