Cathay Pacific Tristar
Gentlemen, Thanks for your kind comments. The resize of the scans has resulted in a loss of definition, but in case your interested, I can read from the original scanned panel shot these facts...... 31020 ft.....................mach .831 on the left... mach .838 on the right ( different pitot source maybe ? ) Hdg 340....................154nm NW of the Brunei VOR. I was lucky in having the jump seat From T/O Brunei, till landing at KaiTak. Which was a tragedy (not) as I missed the second bottle of Bollinger !!! Cheers TonyM

Cathay Pacific Tristar
Hey Skully !!! Thanks heaps for those shots, brought back pleasant memories of a flight I did in Feb 82, Business class on this magnificent aircraft. Perth-HongKong-Perth. Allow me to share with you 4 shots (apologies for the scratchy colour slide scans) that I took on this flight. I can still taste the lobster ( West Australian of course !!) and the Bollinger. (sigh !) About to board at Perth(aerobridges ? whats that) Nice when you know the crew. Ready to board by bus at Hongkong(Kai Tak no less !) OMG, I can hear & feel those rollers !!!! B) Enjoy Guys !!! Cheers TonyM

FS host FShotspy question
Don't use FShost But.... In direct connect (without FShost) has worked fine for me on 3 different flights. Cheers TonyM

Does anyone navigate using dead reckoning?
Do it quite a lot. Outback Australia, with FTX all regions installed and with approx 300 OZX strips, none of which have AFCADs, so they don,t come up on GPS. Nothing more rewarding than after a 40-50min flight in a small single, over vast red countryside, when a tiny dirt strip appears. Nothing more frustrating ,when it does NOT !!! Cheers TonyM

Multiplayer Traffic Jittery (Back and Forwards very quickly)
Hi James, I hosted our OZX Club flight last night and we topped out at 11 in the session, no jerkiness, smooth as..... Thats using direct connect only, no other stuff such as FS Host etc etc, And Teamspeak for comms.. All FPS locked at 30 or less and NO flooding aircraft in session, a prime cause of what you describe. While a good internet download rate is good, I am led to believe that the hosts UPLOAD speed needs to be reasonable as well. But we were more than happy with our "post gamespy" flight. Cheers TonyM

Cook Strait Dawn
Greeting, Thought it about time I tried posting a screenie here. This one taken last night on the OZX Flying club multiplayer session. tracking from Wellington to Koromiko(Picton) in NZNI A number of players loaded a REX theme specific to this flight, so makes it cool, when others can see similar results Enjoy Cheers TonyM

GAMESPY KILLS FSX MULTIPLAYER SERVER.
Hi, Loss of Gamespy no real biggie in my case. Our very active flying Club (OZX) had regular night session with up to 15 flying together. We now have 5 (including me) hosting via direct connect, and IMHO its better than ever. Once you get your router port forwarding sorted, it works fine. Only advice I could give for club/private session, do not post on the net, your IP address. We just meet up on teamspeak at an arranged time, and verbally give out that address. Happy flying !!!

JAL serves KFC for Christmas
Oh Dear.... OZ vs Kiwi argument again..... Everyone knows that NZ is much better than OZ, thats why 50K kiwis move to OZ each year........ Only kidding dudes......but.when it comes to a blue, the word ANZAC makes the rest of the world run for cover. Be afraid :lol: cheers TonyM

OZX Multiplayer is rocking.
Gentlemen, With a new system up and running my ability to host has taken a leap forward. Handling up to 15 online, no longer causes me texture load problems. The OZX flying club is really rockin lately,and you may wish to have a look at some screenies we posted last night. The occasion.....release of Anthony Lynch's (Ants Airplanes) awesome new freeware of YBNA (Ballina/Byron Bay) airport. To honour his amazing work we decided to have a mass flyin, using his, superb, freeware Tiger Moth. Most of his stuff is downloadable from the OZX site, and although time differences can be a pain, we even had a couple of UK pilots join us. Anyway, check the shots out here... http://aussiex.org/forum/index.php?/topic/13231-ants-tribute-flight-150612/ Enjoy !!!! Cheers TonyM
