• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Mick's ridin' the clutch again!

Arrived SPVI

Fuel used 435

Maintenance points 0 (I took 1000lbs of wine and spirits off my original planned cargo to errr.... "persuade"... some dodgy locals to mend the ruts in the runway!) Well that's my story and I hope it will make Miss Nellie smile!

Kinduva "find a way out of the mountains" that one, then descend through the clouds following an NDB heading. Nice feeling when the runway comes into sight in front and almost lined up!
 
Crashed! - CFIT (controlled flight into terrain)

Trying to sort out some navigation waypoints, not looking!

restarting, same data as before.
 
That C-46 is a tough bird. Just rub a little dirt and spit on the crashed parts and she is good as new.

Problem with Duenna, see attached screenshots. Fuel taken from FS fuel & payload page on landing, flight time from Duenna main screen. Also FS Flight analysis screen uploaded.


But when I closed the Duenna error page, the correct ones came up!

Edit - looks like the Duenna tracking site went down.

Maintenance points 1. But as the autopilot doesn't have a target altitude setting perhaps Miss Nellie night forgive me for a teency weency encounter with the hard ceiling just this once - it was only 19 feet after all.
 
Keep on keepin' on mate ... you'll get it!

Chile's not too far away .... then a glorious ride into Argentina.




Lookin' good Mick!
