Dakar Embraer\'s return flights

<< < (2/3) > >>

EHM-1417 Tamas:
Sir's!

Funchal too far in Current Embraer 120!
Maximum fuel loading 5730 pounds. (Fsnavigator calculated FL260, Climb speed 200, Cruise Speed 220, no wind calculated) Requied fuel 6862 Pounds.

Real specifictation info:
2 660 kg  Maximum fuel weight -> 5 860  Ehhh.. who lost 130 pounds in FS aircraft??

Continued....

Dakar - Funchal Distance Direct flight 1077 nm.
And Aircraft max Range 1100 nm. Limits safety flight!!!

I'am voted new destination: Grand Canaria Airport.
(FS nav calculated fuel 5167 Pounds, and Distance to Dakar: 800 nm)

Next leg (Gran Canaria - Lisbon)  722 Nm (Calculated fuel 4697 pounds)

(Total Fuel loaded 5730 pounds)  Trip fuel first leg 5167 pound+navigaton+winds+ go arrounds and holdings fuel, + my children + my family  and alternate airports?????

EHM-1703 Philip:
LOL, I think I will throw my Wife and Kids out to lighten the load!

Looks like Grand Canaria then. Shame but ah well!

EHM-1617 Iain:
Gran Canaria then...

EHM-1752 Luciano:
I personally would prefer a 3-stops flight with more takeoffs and landings and shorter leg flying time (I fly on IVAO, and long legs require flight attendance all the time). I made up this  route using FSNAV: GQPP 370 nm, GMML 430 nm, GMMX 380 nm and LPPT 430 nm.  It is just a suggestion. Maybe we can have an option.

EHM-0948 Bruno:
Ok,

Final Result:

GOOY -> GCLP

then two ways:

GCLP -> GMMX -> LPPT or GCLP direct to LPPT.

Flight numbers starting in S015 to S018.

These flights don't count for the award (But we appreciate that you do them).
