RTW 2015 Practice 2

[P51FAN]

Discovered I had 1 notch of flaps deployed during most of climb

Unless the runway is short, I leave the flaps up for takeoff with both the F7F & F8F. Leaves one less thing to forget.

However, the gear is a different story.

Per the rules we should be stating what weather engine we are using just to get into the habit.

I thought we were required to use the default FS real world weather.

2015 General Rules Updated for 2015

• Addon weather engines are now permitted. Because we include P3D pilots, and P3D does not have a default Real Weather engine, we allow all pilots to select an alternative if they wish. Only a limited number of designated alternatives are permitted. Pilots must now declare their weather engine before the start of the race—and stick with the same one throughout. Teams publish a list for transparency purposes. And everyone must fly in dynamic Real Weather that is at least as challenging as the MSFS default weather engine. (See Rule 6.E.iii.)

In retrospect, flying a helicopter through the mountains at night to an unlighted airport was probably not a good idea. I got all the ay to the airport without bumping into anything hard. Everything was fine up until the moment that I flipped over. I blame it on Brian Williams. He was my gunner and he said "clear left!" but there was a large gopher hole there, apparently...

Baton back at LWOH.
