Enjoyed an EXCELLENT CFD flight (A320) on VATSIM today with Tony S .... Dusseldorf to Gatwick.  Just terrific!  We were joined by Amadeo flying behind us.

 

We used Discord for the flight deck communications, which worked out very good - better than TeamSpeak, excellent VOX attenuation. One of the reasons I recommend Skype along with a Group Voice Server is so we can have flight deck communications as well as group flight communications channel at the same time. A VOIP program called Ventrilo actually allows people to use one voice server at the same time for both group and flight deck communications, which Discord or TeamSpeak does not do.  Anyway, it's something to work on.

 

Thanks to Tony S and Amadeo for a GREAT, FUN FLIGHT!

Yeah it really was a great flight and I equally enjoyed it very much, despite flying "semi" alone (as I did have a virtual co-pilot haha). Anyways I'm looking forward for more fun with you folks up there and hopefully some more interested flight simmers out there. Take care everyone and fly safe

 

Cheers,
