Dear pilots,

The departure airport will be Rome. We wil leave at 20.00 GMT (21.00 CET). After about 1 hour we will arrive In Marseille. Details for the event can be found Here

You can discuss the event Here. If you have any questions please ask the Online flying coordinator

See you all on the 22nd at Rome Airport!!

Rome weather forcast: http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?world=4842
Marseille: http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?world=0041

Marseille is set for some bad weather. But you can never trust predictions. :)

Also does activesky work with IVAP?

I use ISD scenery for LIRF, will this be a problem as the Taxiways may be in different places or some stupid thing like that which causes mayhem LOL

Please inform me, I am furiously reading the mannuals trying to get myself prepared, i am not used to online flying so i am trying to learn all the terms, what they mean and also getting used to the A/C LOL;D

I am really exited, does anyone have an approximate time of Arrival or a rough guide of our flight time!]


Edit: Sorry didn't read the first part properly :]:$

Tim, sorry for the delay in answering this, I was in a stinking mood most of the weekend (my housemate came back from her holiday and then went off on one at me when she got home...)

Yes, ActiveSky works perfectly well with IVAP (it's what I do), just remember to turn off all the weather support in IVAP first. Start at the bottom of the four weather related tick boxes and work your way up turning them all off, disabling IVAP weather support last.

Tim,

;D

A screeny to make it obvious. This was taken using v 0.4.0 of IVAP (special install on my work machine, hence "defaults"), it was much the same in previous versions.



As you can see, in the "IvAp - Configuration" tool there is a tab called "Weather & Time". Start by turning off "Pressure smoothing" (assuming you are using FS2002) and work your way up, disabling "Wind smoothing", "Clear weather on disconnect" and "Weather Active" last. You can then click OK and start up your FS session as you would normally. Finally, once FS is running, start up ActiveSky (2004.5 in my case).
