February 14, 201115 yr Mike, how close is this to the final set of rules?? can we make plans based on these rules?
February 14, 201115 yr Author Eamonn. The preview is intended to represent the final rules. But we may have to adjust if the community finds show-stopping problems. And we may need to fix the odd glitch while keeping the fundamental structure intact.--Mike --Mike MacKuen

February 14, 201115 yr Just clarification... For the opening event, is it a two-way flight (ie. from TNCM to the outer airport for the pickup and return?) Or is it just a single hop from the outer airport to TNCM?Ok, just looked at the FAQ, and yes it's one-way... Declared weather: FSX: ASN / FS9: ASE
February 14, 201115 yr Thanks Mike... I have a lot of stuff that I need to get done before the race, but that isn't gonna happen now... :Rolling Eyes:Nah, just kidding (about being upset, I do have a lot of things to do), though you did cost me a couple of hours tonight :( Klas Member of AVSIM's Around the World Race Team

This suggests starting at Juliana :) But the FAQ says otherwise .......good spot Stone TEAM AVSIM "Fly Anything" Member BAW 1193
