PIREPS

[EHM-1627 Chris]

how come on the flights themselves all mine are not there, and when i click complete list they are???

does this mean that all my flights do not count???

also what does PAX mean??

[EHM-1627 Chris]

OK never mind...fully read the page...and answered one of my questions

Found On PIREP Page
A valid PiRep is one where the pilot correctly reported -all- the data
necessary to generate the statistics. I.E. the fuel burnt must contain
not only the amount but also the unit used, either as "lbs" or "gal".
Another important issue is the aircraft. A pilot can fly any aircraft his
rank allows for any flight, but to generate consistent statistics, only
the PiReps where the aircraft match the flight's class and the division
will be considered. Other necessary informations are of course dates and
times but also passengers and cruise altitude.

Although i still have no idea what PAX means??

Pax = Passengers

[EHM-1627 Chris]

ahhhh ok thanks

wow...now that's all cleared up...


...how do i know how many paasengers to put in when filing a PIREP??

also where can i find the information about fuel and the other things...i would use the flight logger, but this doesn't work..see my other thread http://www.euroharmony.com/~forum/viewthread.php?tid=1273

You can put any amout of passengers you want but dont put them too low though......wont look nice =P i usually put it between 75% to 100%

You can see the amount of fuel used somewhere in the flight simulator.....cant remember where though....press alt at flight end (without exiting flight) and find a fuel option somewhere there and it should tell you the amout of fuel left....that with the amount of fuel you have at the start will tell you how much fuel you have used

i got the feul part mastered

and now get the passengers.

when i do a pirep through the flight logger, does it get the fuel and the alt and speed automatically???

[EHM-1365 Benjamin]

It gets the cruise alt and fuel automatically....and the speed to some extent I believe.

[EHM-0962 Zhen Yi]

it gets all three if you fly at your cruise speed for long enough.....some short flights might not have it registered though so you would have to type it in yourself

[EHM-1627 Chris]

yeah thanks guys...although when i did it i had a prob with the fuel...see this thread http://www.euroharmony.com/~forum/viewthread.php?tid=1281

Sometimes you need to check the cruise altitude. Default PAX is the max.

See the last post in this thread for an unofficial concise Flight Logger operators guide.

[EHM-1627 Chris]

yeah thanks Iain!!!

now i get it
