Online long flight group event
EHM-0654 Murray:
29th it is... I probably have enough information to make a start on the event page now.
Phil, assuming the PSS isn't doing anything too clever with its panel, you can just copy over the panel.cfg to the fleet variant. Remember to back up the fleet panel.cfg first, of course...
Me, I'll be flying the EHB 777 with the panel tweeked out to work with my Project Magenta setup.
BTW, I flew the shorter leg last night in the EHM 738 for test purpose - little under two hours with the wind coming from the left at FL410 with an IAS of .780 Mach.

For the long haul, I am not in the right class yet :( Is that going to matter for the event?

Jay,
Sorry for the delay in replying directly - as per the edit in the first post really. :)
We try to make the online events inclusive; any class of pilot is welcome to take part in any class of aircraft that will make the range without sneeky in-flight refueling, so if you're Class 1 you'd be permitted to fly a Class 7 aircraft on the first leg (which you're not, but for the purpose of explanation)...
EHM-1281 Cyriel:
Some preliminary fuel calculations would be nice as well nex tto the route suggestion;)
EHM-0654 Murray:
"Lots!" and "Less!" respectively
;D
Well, for GCLP-LPPT, I loaded 75% (wing tanks) on the 737-800 and still had over twice reserve when I landed when I test flew it last night.
Any of you young'uns that know the Class 7 birds a little better than I do feel like chipping in?
EHM-1281 Cyriel:
Well I can do the calculation (for a 747) myself then and will post it here. Anyone has an idea of the winds that are normal between fl310 and fl410 for the 1st leg?
