May 11, 201115 yr Author Captains, Vatpac is conducting an event called Cross the Ditch (similar to cross the pond) which is the expanse of the water between Australia New Zealand and Fiji. This event using ETOPS procedures will be the perfect online environment to use the new 737s and your new discounted Orbx scenery. We invite you to join us for 18 hours of fun. UTC: Saturday 28th May 2011 18:00 - Sunday 29th May 2011 12:00 AEST: Sunday 29th May 2011 04:00 - Sunday 29th May 2011 22:00 NZST: Sunday 29th May 2011 06:00 - Monday 30th May 2011 00:00 Cross the Ditch Website That's IF the NGX get's released this month.

May 11, 201115 yr By the way, why does it say Autumn? Is that because they are below the equator (I know the seasons are reversed, but I thought they kept the same names).

May 18, 201115 yr Sounds good. For anyone intrested this can be followed here: http://vataware.com/....cfm?cid=828316.According to vataware he has not yet done any time on vatsim yet with the 737. Either he changed his mind, logged in under a fake name or it has not reached that point in beta yet. Eric
May 18, 201115 yr By the way, why does it say Autumn? Is that because they are below the equator (I know the seasons are reversed, but I thought they kept the same names).It's because 'Fall' is a North American expression.Cheers,Nick Jones
May 18, 201115 yr Hmmmm.....Ryan's "type activity" seems to be missing a certain "je ne sais quoi". According to vataware he has not yet done any time on vatsim yet with the 737. Either he changed his mind, logged in under a fake name or it has not reached that point in beta yet.Yes, that was my point exactly, although not totally understandable if you don't know any French. :( Ron Priever

July 25, 201114 yr Author I thought it was an appropriate time to dig this up. Let's shoot for a +2 days after the NGX release to get together and take over VATSIM like a swarm of bees.Who's in?

July 25, 201114 yr I thought it was an appropriate time to dig this up. Let's shoot for a +2 days after the NGX release to get together and take over VATSIM like a swarm of bees.Who's in?I'll be the guy that connects on the active runway, I hope I can start things up with ctrl e. But on a serious note it would be cool to coordinate something, probably the best way is to start a thread over at vatsim or ivao, maby a FIR or ARTCC will be fully staffed for this.
July 25, 201114 yr Author I control at ZTL so I can possible get an event going over there. Let me know what city pairs you guys want Mike Moskovich Antec 900 Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Case - Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge [email protected] - EVGA SuperClocked GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 - ASUS Sabertooth P67 - G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 - Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive - Corsair H70 Liquid Cooling - Corsair TX750W PSU
July 25, 201114 yr I'm in as well. Can't wait to fly this bird on VATSIM to see how she performs.

July 25, 201114 yr Author I say we fly into KASE. That approach will surely let the NGX shine in all it's glory.Perhaps KLAS-KASE?

July 25, 201114 yr Oh yeah, I'm sure ZDV would appreciate a bunch of 737s flying into KASE on their "first" flight online :( Especially Harold Rutila, I'm sure he would love that Johan Pettersen
