For the record, seeing the 10 aircraft holding short of 30L right now from my MSP_R_APP radar for this arrival is hilarious. Nice photo call.

No kidding man! Of course, one of them is me

Vatspy is showing a whole boat load of Cessna's just sitting on the ground at MSP waiting for the arrival.... thats great, they will see a nice AI 737 landing from their own file library!!! ROFLMAO It's like the real world guys trying to grab a pic of a 787 test flight

I'd divert to his alternate if I were him, just for a laugh at having a bunch of Cessnas scrambling for take off.Al

Happy to say I was there. The landing was beautiful!And she taxiied right next to all of us.

I was also there and I am happy to say that as well. It was very much worth the wait. Ryan finally has a voice! Thank you Ryan, I had fun, see you next time; and thank you for taxiing next to us. Awesome Best regards

There ya go. Then 3/4 of them signed off, and didn't even give us any outbound traffic :/

I have to say I'm stunned that people were waiting for the landing there haha! That was a fully handflown approach by the way, used the HGS in VMC mode with the 3 degree glideslope line displayed. It's almost too easy!That screenshot is hilarious - I assure you the NGX model looks better than that VIP thing haha!

Should have done the good old tower flyby, bet that would have impressed the ground crowd ;)

Tower this is Ghostrider, requesting flyby. Negative Ghostrider, the pattern is full.

I had a list of questions written down and somehow got those mixed up with my checklists. You might have seen, there was one Cessna 172 flashing their lights at you. One was hoping a red carpet would pull out and the Captain would invite me into the flight deck.

Quick question......what causes the aircraft to look like the "VIP" model, vs the PMDG livery?

Its dependant on the pilot client (vatsim client) configuration. I think the VIP model is a part of Squawkbox's traffic 3d models. With FSInn you can use whatever planes/liveries you have installed in FSX.

Mr. Colwill has just filed EGLL-EGCC as PMDG738.Me? Jealous?

Hi, further to Ryans graphic explanation of an RNP etc., if you can get Just Planes Westjet 737-600 DVD {which is an NGX} there is a Simulator flight to Kelowna in Canada and also a real flight from Vancouver to Kelowna using RNP. I emailed Westjet requesting RNP routes but although they thanked me for my interest, they explained that for legal reasons they could not oblige. richard welsh.
