July 2, 201015 yr I have a little ritual for the first flght: While in KBFI taxi end to end of the airport to get used to the size of the airplane and the turns radius. Then taxi into position and hold for several minutes while going through the checklist again slowly, taking time to look outside, trying to hold in my mind the horizon and the view as its seen from the cockpit as a visual reference for the landing.Then I do takeoff at MTOW again to get a feeling of the controls, the inertia and the takeoff run length and go north making basic maneuvers: Steep turns, approach to stall, climbs and descents in several configurations.. Getting familiar with the airplane. When I feel satisfied I file for KSEA, land to a full stop, refuel, file to some random destination and then keep going from one place to the other trying not to repeat destinations very often, as I do normally with any other plane. ----- Jose M Garcia

Make something like a test flight. Very nice, but I don't have enoght patience for that. So, since I'm from Brazil, I'll make a route usually flown by GOL Linhas Aereas, using either the 737-700 or -800 from Galeao (SBGL), Rio de Janeiro to Guarulhos (SBGR), Sao Paulo, then passing thru Brasilia (SBBR), and ending in Manaus (SBEG). Then, if my patience allows, I'll make all the way back to Rio using the same route. Or maybe fly to somewhere else, like Caribbean, Mexico or USA.Or maybe a delivery flight from Boeing Field to Guarulhos, also using GOL livery. Matheus Mafra

Then I usually paint my own custom livery. Jay Vorkapic
July 2, 201015 yr Hello to all,what plans do you all have for your first flight in the 737NGX.EDDF-LEPA by Airberlin... in my favorite flat, D-ABBC ♥ ! :D Daniel
July 3, 201015 yr I guess my very first NGX will be taken on one hour test flight departing McCarran Intl (KLAS by FSDT) flying north-east over Hoover Damb and further to the Grand Canyon and then back to KLAS for a nice crosswind landing... Regards, Martin Martinov / VATSIM 1207931
July 3, 201015 yr I figured that with a HIGH detailed aircraft it should only deserve to be flown between HIGH QUALITY scenery so it will be YMML-YBBN with Orbx's sceneries..That should easily give the most AS-REAL-AS-IT-GETS experience!! Cheers Josh Cliff
