Avsim vs Flightsim RTW Race - Pre-Race Thread #1

[Guest dcc]

yeah, I'm getting better at it too. I got it off the ground with very little headwind. My landings need some improvement, but I've still got a month or so :)- dcc

Saw you on BN last night. Teamspeak is pretty easy to install and setup. I used bushnet's IP address to connect once the software installed. You simply type in the IP address and type in a name such as your aircraft callsign and hit 'connect'. I have a microphone I bought from Radioshack for $12 that attaches to my shirt and has an on/off switch. I programmed TS to "push to talk" using the FS ATC key (since in MP there is no ATC). Works fine for me. Good luck!

Do you guys want to conduct a more formal practice for the Last Weekend before the Race?And can we encourage people who have been lurking to get out and try a few legs on this weekend? Any ideas about how we might do this?This is our last chance to get a lot of participation. It would be a good thing if we had a few more "veterans" around who were familiar with all the procedures and with the pressure of flying under race conditions.Best,Mike
