Moses / AOA / L-049A / Europe

Made it to EGLL.

Landing Weight: 76,597 lbs
Fuel Used: 2738 lbs

One night flight and required commercial center off the board.
 
I need a ruling from the committee. While in the engineer panel, I accidentally clicked on the wrong icon- the add fuel gauge (circled on right). I was trying to pull up fuel panel (left circle). There was no need to refuel I have plenty to get to Paris.

Currently enroute with a busted red Duenna. Should I continue or abort?

Hey, I'm trying to adjust to a new aircraft here.:173go1:
 
At LFPB. Will sit tight until ruling has been issued. Redo, time penalty etc.

If I had not pressed the wrong button these would be the stats:

Landing Weight: 76756
Fuel Used: 2500*

*Close approximation.
 
I just noticed that I landed at Orly. In my panic and frustration I somehow got turned around.

Three strikes I'm out. :isadizzy: Good luck to all!
 
Don't depair, M. I plan on making an unapproved landing on purpose. There's a big giant airport out there someplace in the Pacific that will cut make a 2000 mile leg into a couple shorter ones. That is, if I can figure out how to get the gas from the tanks to the bloody engines in this Connie!
 
These Constellations are more complex than the Avro. I gave our flight engineer a stern warning after we landed.

My last post was just momentary frustration after a long day. Will saddle back up and continue on here shortly.

Down safe at LPPT. I think the crew is starting to get a little comfortable with the ship.

Had some t-storms enroute but got lucky with a clear blue sky nearing Lisbon.

Thanks fellas. Yup, the flying boat is a Short S.23. Imperial Airways had an Azores run, maybe through Lisbon. Not sure.
 
Call me the sentimentalist as well. Night flight departing for Casablanca (GMMC).
