OleAndreasen 88 Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Maddz Actually a nice first score. Not bad AT ALL. BUT... I think Matt is going to kill you, for beginning prematurely Here is a quote from Matt. "Phase one will start 2000 UTC on Saturday 9th April so you have a few days to plan Phase one will last until 2000 UTC Saturday 21st May (6 weeks), so ample time to complete all 16 flights" And well maddz its NOT 2000 UTC yet. And another thing. No need to post the FSX logbook anymore. FSFlyingSchool has it´s own logbook. I would like everyone to post a snap of that logbook once a week - first time NEXT Sunday. The post flight eval./score card is fine though. Must be posted on every flight, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have changed my mind. Your penalty is revoked. AND: I am overruling Matt: AS OF THIS MOMENT, the challenge is open.

(they look it) Yeah lol, but get this it was made out of stainless steel (well before titanium was probably invented). I flew so farst and got so hot the cockpit was refrigerated lol Hilton - London? That has to be a long distance Carlsberg. I am flying to Orly - Paris.... Ill have a beercooler in my ´737, so please board when you get there, and we shall have a darned party.

Matt_Smith 1116 Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Well my departure's delayed for some time. FSUIPC doesnt like my setup and has decided to crash it regularly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManuelL 71 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Managed to sqeeze in the first leg this morning. The landing was emberrasing though. Forgot to arm the spoilers. And the eye point in that lear is so low, I couldn't see the runway on short final and completely missed the center line. Have to shift up the view next time.

Matt_Smith 1116 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Well Im out of the challenge It would appear one of either Orbx PNW, FSUIPC or FSFS didnt like me or my rig and as such now wants to crash it every 20 mins. Might get back in the challege if I can rebuild my rig from the ground up with out loosing too much time. But its safe to say there will be no flying from me either today or much of next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManuelL 71 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Thats too bad. Hope you can still catch up. May hit me too at some time throughout the journey. I'm re-installing FSX every 3-4 months or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
