Matt_Smith 1116 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 OK heres the mission. I shall be giving this a go in a bit I must admit since purchasing Iceland X its been a favourite place to fly around.Andras_Field_Iceland_Part_1.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_Smith 1116 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Ok first thing: Description tells me to take a G221 from EAFW to a lake near Wilhelmshaven. Worried me a bit, its a mighty long flight EAFW - Iceland via Wilhelmshaven in a Goose lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chompski 20 Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 I am going to advise people to use time acceleration- you don't have to fly it in real time. The reason being that I have this map from 26th july 1945 and an article about planning for future air transport and the main leg is Stavanger to Iceland pic way too small here's the link http://www.flightglo...20-%201447.html and the article http://www.flightglo...20-%201446.html article part 2 http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1945/1945%20-%201449.html Mission briefing is just a place holder Mission success will have to look in to thought it was just because I had already done it - I have a trigger with flight conditions to end if you have landed on the water - I wonder if this is causing this. Thanks for looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_Smith 1116 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Awesome idea, I like thes old routes. Nothing like flying the Blue Spruce transatlantic routes (UK, Iceland, Greenland, Canada). Its a bit round the houses but interesting flying The voice overs are a nice touch too. Although did catch me unaware briefly wondering where the voice was coming from. Then it clicked ah my headset lol. The weather is also pretty grotty, definately IMC most of the way to DKB VOR Quite turbulent too at 7000', the gates over the VOR's are a nice touch seeing as the weather isnt the best. I just wish this Goose had a heater Edit: thoughts on time compression: It will kind of spoil the overall effect of the mission, specially if theres any events along the route? Besides it really doesnt take that long to get there. Whack on George maintain a visual watch over everything while getting on with other stuff, simples.

Matt_Smith 1116 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 It seemed to crash FSX half way though Although I have no idea what caused the CTD, its the first tiem its happened with fsx on my new rig. Will investigate further Update, reboot and chkdsk look like they have fixed the problem, am testing at the moment. Paul, is it possibly to have the missions outside of the packaged exe? Or would that make things too complicated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chompski 20 Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 Thanks Matt I could get the parts from the mission file-which parts do you want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_Smith 1116 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Im not too sure? lol I was just thinking to manually install the files needed into the relevent paths, rather than have an installer do it for me. Im old school when it comes to things like that. Having never done anything with missions before I wouldnt know if this is at all possible? If it is too much hassle dont worry, the mission looks like it works after a reboot, chkdsk and some verbal abuse a good talking to. Been in the cruise for an hour now (with weather changed to very overcast just to make sure its not my rig causing problems) with no sign of a problem.
