Matt_Smith 1116 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Ok Phase 2 will start June 11th at 2000UTC and run for 8 weeks to the 6th August at 2000UTC. As we have people on holiday etc at this time of year I've extended from 6 to 8 weeks. This phase has the longest leg in it at 869nm and possibly the most non tarmac/concrete runways Enjoy the planning and Luke, no starting til 2000UTC on the 11th June Phase 2 15 legs, you cannot use an individual aircraft more than 4 times in this segment. Which must be the same selection as from phase 1. Remember you may change 1 aircraft if you want to and havent done so already. 2B2 - KBUF 347 KBUF - 06C 418.4 06C - KASE 869 KASE - KBTF 252.4 KBTF - KLAS 324.8 KLAS - A34 282.2 A34 - KHWD 153.4 KHWD - KLMT 270.4 KLMT - KSEA 318.5 KSEA - CYZT 277.6 CYZT - PAWG 391 PAWG - PASI 104 PASI - PAYA 200.2 PAYA - PADQ 413.7 PADQ - PADU 525.5 TOTAL 5148.1 And a little picture of the phase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Pearse 12 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I've managed to find freeware add-ons for half those destinations so far. Better than last time. That should make it more interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_Smith 1116 Posted June 2, 2011 Author Share Posted June 2, 2011 Too right, even better when its payware, you get your monies worth for getting so up close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddz 737 55 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I can go 1 better than that...When you get payware for free I chose Fjords as 1 of my prizes from the spot landing comp - glad i did now. Hmmm...looking at the route, im gona take my time on this 1. As the last leg ends in a very cold place,i dont want to stay there too long But its Dutch harbor , so if i get to the final leg 3 weeks before the end of this phase - and the weather reports are good to go,i'll be going.A week or 2 fogged in / Airport closed isnt rare there i believe.

Yep thats right and with only a NDB it makes it all the more interesting when the weather is IFR I love Tongas Fjords, ramp all the sliders to the right and it looks just amazing. Plus all the ship traffic, helicopters and seaplane traffic really bring Sitka alive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Pearse 12 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I managed to find KBUF, KASE, KBTF, KLAS, KSEA , PASI and PAWG, all on Flightsim.com. Just search in FSX Scenery by the ICAO ident. I need to expand my search to other places and see if I can find any more. I don't have spare funds to buy the payware stuff at the moment...

Been delayed with due to the chest infection I have, my appologies. Im totting up the scores as and when Im compos mentis enough. Hopefully come the end of the weekend I will have them done. Doesnt help when certain people have encluded all their landing scores, which means Im left checking flight by flight for them Screenshot winner for the phase will be announced by Ole, as he's judging that.

flyingsub 7 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Whilst trying to work out if I should replace one of my fleet, I got got busy working out runway lengths etc and have made a scoring template for Phase 2 based on the original, but I can't upload it because it is an .xls file. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrion 72 Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 I'm still here. Although my internet access is severly limited, I can still fly... Just not post about it every day. By the way Matt, nice route... But did you HAVE to let the longest route start in such a small airstrip?? going to see if my C130 gets in there, but if not, it'll be the Duke... In that case, it'll be a looooooooooong flight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
