May 20, 201511 yr Here are some shots from the first round in Scotland. Seems like the proper weather is showing up. Good crowd! The wind sock is fully erect, going to be one of those flights again. Following Mike on climbout. UMMMPHHHH! - The sound one makes when the all air leaves the lungs after a hard landing. Ron on touchdown. Nick on approach. UMMMPHHHH! - Again. Working the winds on approach. Lismore Lighthouse, on the small island of Eilean Musdile. Over the top of Glencoe while listening to the history behind the massacre. Passing over Ben Nevis with "just" enough visibility. Eilean Donan Castle. Mike crabbing it in nicely while following Josh. The winds where extreme at times. Windsock fully inflated as a direct crosswind. Nick, Josh, Mike & myself. Looking good! Ooops, caught the gust... Nick at my 11 O'clock. A nice Sunset for the "meeting of the minds"..

May 20, 201511 yr Rick, Quick introduction in this post: http://forum.avsim.net/topic/468958-rtwr-casual-flights-invitation-to-all/ Nick (CavalierDuck) is currently planning the next Scotland leg and should have a post up later this week. Look for a post that starts with "Scotland 2" which will have details about the route this Saturday. First thing you should do is get your Teamspeak setup for voice communication. Take a look at the invitation post which will give you links for the freeware client. | Windows 11 | ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO | i9-14900K | RTX 4090 | 64GB CORSAIR VENGEANCE DDR5 | 4TB Samsung 990 PRO M.2 | 2x 4TB Samsung 990 PRO M.2 | CORSAIR AX1600i ATX Titanium | LG C2 42 Inch 4K OLED |
May 20, 201511 yr Teamspeak or Teamviewer? Okay, will look out for that post. Thanks. EDIT: Only have P3D, no FSX, so I guess Teamspeak won't work. Rick Almeida
May 20, 201511 yr Teamspeak or Teamviewer? Okay, will look out for that post. Thanks. EDIT: Only have P3D, no FSX, so I guess Teamspeak won't work. Teamspeak is a standalone app.. does not care about FSX or P3D.. Bert
May 20, 201511 yr Thanks for that Bert. Then why the pre-requisite in that link posted above #20 that it will require FSX? I hope it works with P3D. I'm so much looking forward to this. Rick Almeida
May 20, 201511 yr Rick, Teamspeak will work for voice communication for any sim as it is completely separate application. The problem between MS-FSX, FSX-SE, and P3D is that they each have a different version of simconnect and the multiplayer functionallity is incompatible between them. Ron Attwood provides an MS-FSX multiplayer server that we connect to for the Saturday sessions, BUT you have to run MS-FSX to connect to the multiplayer session. You cannot connect to an MS-FSX multiplayer session using P3D or FSX-SE. If you have MS-FSX you will be able to connect to the multiplayer session. The other multiplayer option is FSHost which will support all three sims but it does have some issues too. | Windows 11 | ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO | i9-14900K | RTX 4090 | 64GB CORSAIR VENGEANCE DDR5 | 4TB Samsung 990 PRO M.2 | 2x 4TB Samsung 990 PRO M.2 | CORSAIR AX1600i ATX Titanium | LG C2 42 Inch 4K OLED |
May 20, 201511 yr Jeff Thanks for that update. Guess I'll have to pass on this then, as I've fully got rid of MS-FSX and flushed it clean from my system. That conclusively clears that up. I'll just follow all of your adventures and screen postings. Rick Almeida
May 20, 201511 yr Damn! I thought we'd got another customer. :( The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA
May 22, 201511 yr Rick, A "flushed it clean from my system" is a perfect way to start again! ^_^ Nick, Here is the original movie quote from which I butchered @ Glen Coe. ( No disrespect at all. - Just a movie quote. SHITE! I be Scottish too! ) Tommy: Doesn't it make you proud to be Scottish? Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: It's SHITE being Scottish! We're the lowest of the low. The scum of the f___ing Earth! The most wretched, miserable, servile, pathetic trash that was ever shat into civilization. Some hate the English. I don't. They're just wankers. We, on the other hand, are COLONIZED by wankers. Can't even find a decent culture to be colonized BY. We're ruled by effete arseholes. It's a SHITE state of affairs to be in, Tommy, and ALL the fresh air in the world won't make any f___ing difference! FS RTWR SHRS F-111 JoinFS Little Navmap
