Tom Siday 1114859 Posted July 28, 2009 at 02:44 PM Posted July 28, 2009 at 02:44 PM hi there, would a few people want to do some vfr flying tonight? possibly in some kingair 350's on an aircraft of that type, any other ideas i'm open to suggestions it can be from anywhere, really, but preferebly in the uk, that would be best, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Blunda 1090955 Posted August 6, 2009 at 10:27 AM Posted August 6, 2009 at 10:27 AM Hey hey! Is the offer still up for grabs? I wouldnt mind either the KingAir, Caravan C20 or even the Grumman Goose (awesome thing to fly in groups, I bet). Now, my knowledge of aviation is still sp[Mod - Happy Thoughts], but what if we fly in uncontrolled space, making it a wee bit easier? Edit: as for the Grumman Goose, I can highly recommend this free rework of the original Goose by OZx: http://aussiex.org/forum/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=633 (dont forget to grab the 1.00 to 1.20 update).

Tom Siday 1114859 Posted August 6, 2009 at 11:40 AM Author Posted August 6, 2009 at 11:40 AM Yer, that would be good, at about 1800z if thats ok (1900gmt) we can fly the goose if u want, we can decide what to do when we get online im fine with anything really, we can fly out of controlled airspace if u want, or because it is easy to fly vfr in controlled zone we could do that, i can help u if u want (even tho im new too, im getting the hang of vfr) thanks, EDIT: i dont think i will be able to use the goose, is it for fsx? i'm fs2004 and my computer isn't that powerful, so i don't know about that, but i have some other good boatplanes that do work so i can use those Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Blunda 1090955 Posted August 6, 2009 at 11:58 AM Posted August 6, 2009 at 11:58 AM Ah, ok I use FSX, but I dont think that should be any problems? You wouldnt happen to have the RealAir Scout by any chance? Bit slow, but thus easier Otherwise, how about the (default?) KingAir? I'd prefer uncontrolled airspace, unless you're able to get our both through clearance etc. Im not really sure how it works when you're two flying the same route, really. Unfortunately, I dont have a printer at home either, so I cant print out charts etc, and will have to make do with what I can put on the screen = asking for trouble, really...I often need good time to study the charts etc. Btw, I'm in time zone CET, which I think is GMT+1...so that should be 20:00 my time. Works for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricardo Blunda 1090955 Posted August 7, 2009 at 07:15 PM Posted August 7, 2009 at 07:15 PM Ok, Tom...Ive found out how to use the built-in private chat feature in FSINN. You will need to find out how to use your software (Squawkbox?) so that you can dial in a frequency *in* the FS plane and transmit through that. Let me know how it goes.

Ricardo Blunda 1090955 Posted August 8, 2009 at 10:51 AM Posted August 8, 2009 at 10:51 AM Yeah, Im finding it a bit hard finding the time for this. Last time we spent 1:15 without even getting off the ground. I may be able to try today if its done reasonably soon. How does 14:00 CET sound for you guys? Thats little over an hour from now...
