I still can't land this thing properly..please help
Flaps 10 is rarely used.At 210kts, go flaps1.Standard approaches call for the LOC intercept at 180kts which gives you flaps 5.Upon G/S intercept flaps 15, gear down, and you start reducing your speed.By the OM you should be in full landing configuration, vref+5, flaps30/40 and the landing checklist completed.Also, try without the HGS, because it really comes down to your feeling than chasing FPV all around the place.Also to add, most SOPs dictate 1-5-15-30 flap extension and 1-5-15-25-40 when flaps 40 is to be used. The use of 25 gives a smoother transition since there is a big difference between 15-40.The key to a good landing is a stabilized approach.EDIT:To add, this is a standard approach. We are not talking about a high speed approach this time.

Practice practice, oh and did I say practice?Its an art, not a science.Try disconnecting the A/P AND A/T when you are established. You will see how the plane continues to fly perfectly because it has already been trimmed out. You just have to make slight corrections.Keep Vref+5, when you hear 20 take out the thrust, and at 10 just pull SLIGHTLY and it should land smoothly.So basically what you are looking for is to keep it at 10 for 1sec maybe.Though, it is always better to just slam it down if you see its not going well, than running out of runway/going around.

The practical type rating is done on VATSIM where one of our instructors who are also certified for ATC, connect and act as ATC.We use our ACARS combined with either Skype Screen Sharing or Livestream to see if the trainee is performing the required procedures well.This is until we develop a program for instructors.

Help with ACARS
So I am trying to launch a VA and I have come across a problem with the FSACARS setup.I am not really skilled in this department...I am currently running on localhost and will than switch to payed hosting.Anyway I developed my website using Joomla and its awesome, I bought IPB too and linked it to the website (I use Xampp for localhost)Now when I tried the ACARS setup it didn't go wellSo lets startI first went to htdocs/ folder on my PC and there created the folder called acars and copied the 4 files that i got from ACARS there (creatdb.sql,connect_db and so on)1. I went to localhost/phpmyadmin and created a new mysql database called acars2.went into the database and followed this: Open your DB Manager and execute createdb.sql. You are not required to include createdb.sql in your online folder since it is only neededonce, during database creation. I did this by going to database and than in the SQL (Run SQL query/queries on database) entered ## Table structure for table `pilots`#CREATE TABLE pilots ( pilot_id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, pilot_num varchar(15) NOT NULL default '', name varchar(255) NOT NULL default '', city varchar(30) NOT NULL default '', country varchar(30) NOT NULL default '', email varchar(255) NOT NULL default '', admission_date date NOT NULL default '0000-00-00', status varchar(30) NOT NULL default '', PRIMARY KEY (pilot_id), UNIQUE KEY pilot_key (pilot_num)) TYPE=MyISAM;## Dumping data for table `pilots`#INSERT INTO pilots VALUES (1, 'TST001', 'Test Pilot', 'Lisbon', 'Portugal', '[email protected]', '2003-04-04 10:59:36', 'Active');# --------------------------------------------------------## Table structure for table `reports`#CREATE TABLE reports ( report_id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, pilot_id smallint(6) NOT NULL default '0', date date NOT NULL default '0000-00-00', time time NOT NULL default '00:00:00', callsign varchar(10) default NULL, origin_id varchar(4) NOT NULL default '0', destination_id varchar(4) NOT NULL default '0', registration varchar(10) default NULL, equipment varchar(10) default NULL, duration time NOT NULL default '00:00:00', fuel smallint(6) NOT NULL default '0', distance smallint(6) NOT NULL default '0', fsacars_rep_url text NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (report_id), UNIQUE KEY report_id (report_id), UNIQUE KEY xpk_reports (report_id), KEY xi_reports (pilot_id)) TYPE=MyISAM; It says that its done :)3. I did the 3rd step (Edit connect_db.php to reflect your mysql database config.)its ok , did that but now it asks me to do the following4. Edit receive_pirep.php to change the file paths in the constants section.I dont know what to enter in (where the *********** are)@define ("MYSQL_CONNECT_INCLUDE", "connect_db.php"); @define ("REPORT_FILE_URL", "*******************");@define ("REPORT_FILE_PATH", "***************");@define ("ERROR_LOG_PATH", "*");After that is says5. Create one folder inside the REPORT_FILE_PATH to store each pilot pirep files. Please note that the folder name must be the same as your VA callsign followed by the pilot number.But i cant find the folder!Please help
