January 7, 201115 yr Folks,Since we probably won't have the opportunity to fly them in the race, I would like to propose an On-line Concorde Team flight. The proposed leg is SCIP-SCTE. This is a reprise of the final leg of the Concorde Conundrum from the 2005 RTWR. The full story of that event can be read here starting at the end of page 17. I propose that we should fly on the weekend to maximise possible participants. My schedule is very flexible on the weekends so I am open to changes.How about Sunday January 16, 16:00 UTC?Meet on Buzz's Hamatchi multiplayer and teamspeak.Of course all AVSIM veterans are invited to join the on-line session regardless of what they are flying. I thought this would be a nice way to promote some serious drinking by Sven who will remember this leg well :(:( | Windows 11 | ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO | i9-14900K | RTX 4090 | 64GB CORSAIR VENGEANCE DDR5 | 4TB Samsung 990 PRO M.2 | 2x 4TB Samsung 990 PRO M.2 | CORSAIR AX1600i ATX Titanium | LG C2 42 Inch 4K OLED |

And I'd need a whole lot of "training" on the SSTSIM Concorde in FS9...Edit: Oops.... I guess I should stop making posts when I'm that tired.... Never even noticed that this was on a Sunday, and next weekend to boot.... Still need to spend some serious time learning the sstsim concorde, and hopefully my system is truly virus-free..... Declared weather: FSX: ASN / FS9: ASE
January 8, 201115 yr I don't mind doing this. I will bring along a TU144 to compare how it is to the Concorde!
January 8, 201115 yr I'll prolly be there.. I wanted to get the new concorde for fsx so if I get it before then, I'll be up for a flight. :)
January 9, 201115 yr The proposed leg is SCIP-SCTE. I thought this would be a nice way to promote some serious drinking by Sven who will remember this leg well :(:(Ouch - just I as had managed to forget that leg :oBut as I have replenished my stock of Malt Whisky, I'll do my very best to be there!I'll have my VPN FSHOST up and running, so if y'all like, we can try that out as well.BRGDSSven Sorensen, EKCH

January 9, 201115 yr Thanks Bry, going to have to check that out. Showing up all depends on American football, If the Packers win today I will not be able to make it.. ( It doesn't look good for making it though ----- Pre game jitters LOL! )Roman FS RTWR SHRS F-111 JoinFS Little Navmap

January 12, 201115 yr Ill be there count me in send me the IP for the servers and yeah im in :)Heliguy, maybe my memory is failing me but were you a part of the RTW Race last year? IF not, are you looking to join the team this year? We can always use some new pilots. :)
January 16, 201115 yr Good times guys, good flying with ya. :)Here are a couple screenshots i took during our run.
January 17, 201115 yr My 'co-pilot' was looking the wrong way during pre-flight operations for the supersonic flight today. Oh, well at least I had some company for the 2 hour flight!
January 17, 201115 yr Nice shots Eamonn! I hope you had some "Captain" on board to mix w/ the Pepsi. LOL! Time to practice now,, And.. of all things, going thru the checklists ( a must do on Concorde ) I forgot to start Duenna for a practice run :-(). Anyhow, here's some screenies from today and before hand.This one is from earlier, after the new computer build,, coming into KORD with a NASTY! front coming in (RW) . Already committed on approach from the Janesville STAR, winds changing, not in time. Lots of traffic coming my way. Just not good. Still like flying the "Barrel". Getting out of a Saab and getting into a Lincoln.Today, my WX engine must have given me some bad temps @ altitude. I reached 60K wayyyy before any one else ( But, it was my best fuel scheduling, ever ;-) ) , and she just wanted to keep going. +1000 fpm @ FL613 and 104% on the engines just doesn't seem right. LOL! No Comment, It's one of the best things I ever did see ... I Seen this back in, I believe, in 1997, @ KOSH she took off in early morning as I just got inside the gates @ EAA.. "If you weren't awake, you are now!" SPECTACULAR! Just not enough parking,,, "Keep er tight fellas, there's more on the way." Getting the Concorde down in time is a troublesome deal ! A true art ( 3 in the cockpit vs. 1 ) . I Reverted to my pre high school algebra.. It kinda worked. HA! Pleasure flying with you fellas today, Thanx for the support in the VPN and my sound GUI ( It sux! ) ..... Sound Check,, Check, Check, Check .. etc...Roman FS RTWR SHRS F-111 JoinFS Little Navmap
January 17, 201115 yr LOL! Do we now have to report a co-pilot on Duenna ? Human or not ? He/She's not looking the wrong way, just wondering......... " WHAT THE ___ ARE YOU DONG? YOU MISSED A CHECKLIST ITEM ! I WILL NOT FLY WITH YOU ANYMORE . " LOL just kidding, My weimaraner checked in on me a few times today to make sure everything was alright -- I guess I'm still in training.. Come February she'll be on my back, makin sure all is good.LOL is all I can say.Pleasure today.Roman FS RTWR SHRS F-111 JoinFS Little Navmap
