RTW 2010 Practice 1 Thread

One thing that is important to do is keep the rest of the team apprasied of your progress as you fly your leg. Provide regular updates, with "ETE", or time until you land. This is very helpful to the next pilot, preparing to grab the baton for the next leg. Since it is not required to fly online in multi-player, the next pilot has only this thread for updates on your progress.

Have reached cruising altitude of 25,000. ETE 1:06.
 
Have a pretty good tail wind at 25,000. No northern lights yet. ETE 0:50.
 
ETE 0:30.

Flying online tip: Re-assign all single-key commands to some combination that you are unlikely to press while typing in the multi-player chat box, because often you think the chatbox has the keyboard focus, but it doesn't, the sim does, and you end up dropping the gear, activating time compression, and slew mode. Very frustrating, and worse, duenna will invalidate the leg.
 
Weather report

Winds on the ground 0 kts at 193 degrees.

Which prompts me to ask why if FS has 0 kts of wind does it show a direction. :icon_lol:

Visibility 60nm

Terrain very flatish in the default mesh.

Runway has lights

Runway 8 is your best approach

Should be a cake walk.
