August 31, 201114 yr As paul said, just do the tutorial flight, that covers a lot of stuff really well. ray wed
August 31, 201114 yr I was doing the tutorial flight and it kept me at 5000FT due to restrictions until a few waypoints later. Is this the way it is in real life. Do pilots stay at 5000Ft until some 15 miles after departure from EGKK?Yes that´s normal as Fred said! But usually ATC interfere and give you the Alt though. Remember, here the ATC didn´t interfere so youflied the SID according to the chart, based of that heavy traffic around./ Leffe Leif A Mikkelsen **********************
August 31, 201114 yr I am not really a big documentation fan either however, the tutorial flight was very helpful.

Thats why you have to stay at 5000 for a long while. Johan Pettersen
August 31, 201114 yr Have a look at http://casperflights.../?location=egkk at a busy time of day and see the juggling that has to be done between the two airports. The standard version is free but has a delay of 15 minutes. William Hall
