After a few flights in the NGX i have a major one planned Big%20Grin.gifBig%20Grin.gifIt's a flight from Washington, DC -> Brasilia (fuel stop) -> Ross Island, Antarctica (KDCA -> SBBR (for fuel) -> NZWD)This is all based on the assumption that PMDG will include the -700ER in their packageBased on information on Boeing's website, I know that i can make it from DC to Brasil, it's the second sector that i'm worried about.Payload will be extremely lowWhat do you guys think?

You see if I ever tried to do this, my skin cells would intertwine with the treads in my chair. Good luck, I think you will make it however.

If you're flying on IVAO, I can be you APP controller at Brasilia. Just tell me when, and I'll be there Big%20Grin.gif

I assume you're so keen to provide control for kris in order to provide co-ordination for the inevitable rescue that'll be required?!

Are you going to use real weather on the day? If so, visit MS Ship Sim forum & ask for a few of them to be anchored along your route in case you have to ditch-only kidding:Big Grin: Let us know how you get on, Also, think about contacting the NSTB save them a lot of work if you do go down:Big Grin: That was a bit of fun but seriously-how about a full brief once you have done it?Sorry, should have been NTSB above.

Definitely using real world weather :)Yes, i like that idea. I'll leave a post when i've done it about how it went. Maybe a lot of us should do this flight once we get the NGX?! Flying from many different places all meeting on Ross Island, Antarctica.

I can be on Potomac Approach (DCA_APP) on VATSIM, if you'd like.You have to know, though, that I'm going to laugh on my side of the scope if you don't make it off of the runway with all of that fuel. You might want to use IAD instead. Longer runways and no airspace to deal with, and it's still called Washington Dulles.
