ManuelL 71 Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 Did the 2nd leg this morning. Some mistakes during taxiing. Had lots of turbulence and bad visibility during the flight. Had to fly by hand too. When I turned on the Sperry, it did some very steep turns around the set heading. Maybe I should try the standard FSX real weather instead of ASE.

ManuelL 71 Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 My 3rd flight. In my opinion the landing wasn't as bad as the score suggests. I came in a bit high and lost the glideslope about 20-30 feet above the runway. Manuel RTWC piloting Learjet 45 Limited Edition ended Samstag, 16.

ManuelL 71 Posted April 17, 2011 Author Share Posted April 17, 2011 Slowly getting the hang of the DC-3. Although there is an odd inconsistency in the engine temps between the 2d panel and the VC of the JF DC-3. In the 2d panel the temps always were rather low, while the VC told me my engines were cooking. May have to look, if there is a patch for this. Manuel RTWC piloting Douglas DC3PW ended Sonntag, 17.

ManuelL 71 Posted April 21, 2011 Author Share Posted April 21, 2011 Yeeeesssss, finally!!! Mr. Smith had nothing to complain about. He even dosed off a bit after I set the autopilot on "soft ride". Managed a perfect ILS landing with 100% for localizer and glide slope. Gotta love the PC-12. Its such a gentle ride. Even if it is so light that it gives a few points less than the other planes.

ManuelL 71 Posted April 24, 2011 Author Share Posted April 24, 2011 Had a nerve wrecking flight from Oslo to Vagar. Severe icing problems, my manifold pressure circled the drain 2 times forcing me to do an emergency decend. Both times the pitot failed as well (heater seemed to have no effect), so I had to rely on the trimmer to keep the speed healthy. Finally I found that the ILs localizer was way off the runway direction (may have to do with the freeware addon?) and I got the off the runway problem althoug I was bang on (really seems to have something to do with the airport being so far up north) - well at least I survived and got 1 leg further Manuel RTWC piloting RealAir Beech Duke DIESG Winglets ended Sunday, April 24, 2011 at 19:36 FSFlyingSchool 2011 (February 25 2011) Using: FSX Visibility: 29.83 Miles Wind: 15 Knots Aircraft: Beech ID: DIESG Airline: Flight: Flight plan: ENGM TO EKVG : NAV1: Failure(s): None at landing Failure Event(s) (Zulu Time): None Failure Bonus:0% Flight Duration:03 Hours 00 Mins 35 Secs Landing Score:28.14 Landing was successful in the following areas: Good glideslope on visual approach.

Ian Pearse 12 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 MauneiL, the ILS doesn't match the runway heading as it is an offset ILS. It basically brings you to a point where you should have visual with the actual runway and can turn onto the heading. It is a pain to fly, but this is why it is called the Round the World Challenge! I'm sure there will be more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManuelL 71 Posted April 27, 2011 Author Share Posted April 27, 2011 The "off runway error" is back - may really have something to do with the heading, as it was gone on the previous flight landing on rwy 22.

ManuelL 71 Posted May 7, 2011 Author Share Posted May 7, 2011 Yay, last leg of phase 1 Now I only have to repeat the 3 landings with the "off runway surface" error.

ManuelL 71 Posted May 7, 2011 Author Share Posted May 7, 2011 Hmmm, there are some nasty trees just before the runway in standard fsx Yeh same for the addon aswell, Re-done the first 2 landings, where I had the "or runway error". Teached me another lesson not to rush things First landing went great, but for the second I came in mucht too low and even got lower points than with the error Manuel RTWC piloting RealAir Beech Duke DIESG Winglets ended Saturday, May 07, 2011 at 17:55 FSFlyingSchool 2011 (April 27 2011) Using: FSX Visibility: 9.94 Miles Wind: 15 Knots Aircraft: Beech ID: DIESG Airline: Flight: Flight plan: ENGM TO EKVG Vagar:Vagar NAV1: Failure(s): None at landing Failure Event(s) (Zulu Time): None Failure Bonus:0% Flight Duration:00 Hours 06 Mins 14 Secs Landing Score:121.65 Landing was successful in the following areas: Good glideslope on visual approach.

ManuelL 71 Posted May 8, 2011 Author Share Posted May 8, 2011 Not sure why I go so low points again. Given the cross wind the landing wasn't so bad - ah well, at least some room for improvement in the next phase of the journey Manuel RTWC piloting RealAir Beech Duke DIESG Winglets ended Sunday, May 08, 2011 at 10:54 FSFlyingSchool 2011 (April 27 2011) Using: FSX Visibility: 29.83 Miles Wind: 14 Knots Aircraft: Beech ID: DIESG Airline: Flight: Flight plan: BIVM TO BIGR Grimsey:Grimsey NAV1: Failure(s): None at landing Failure Event(s) (Zulu Time): None Failure Bonus:0% Flight Duration:00 Hours 06 Mins 14 Secs Landing Score:50.20 Landing was successful in the following areas: Good glideslope on visual approach.
