Are the Pirep\'s be checked?

<< < (2/5) > >>

EHM-1798 Conrad:
yup, i fly online too now!

how am i cheeting  Willem de Graaf, its a route on Harmony, and i like to fly the heavy jets, i occasionaly take the beechcraft out for a spin, & i am in the middle of the Alps tour

Everyone does the occasional sleep thing, but to be honist i do have a life and i dont sit infront of a computer all day, even though i love to fly on FS!

I have A-levels and gap year plans to organise for september, so i can only do long flights!

And if i was really cheeting, why would i be making alot of suggestions to the management, and having chats with bruno?

so if i was really sand bagging, why would i bother in trying to contribute to Harmony?

And when someone asks for help, you dont need to mock the thread.

So conclusion

I have work to do
A-Levels for university to prepare for
Gap year to organise

Therefore, short flights would take up alot of my time, i.e. Takoff, 2 hours later need to descend and im in the middle of work, it doesnt work for me at the moment!
 If i do a long flight i can do work for say 7 hours solid at my desk next to my pc while its flying. Thats why i have to do long haul flights at the moment. As soon as i finish exams and gap year preperations i can do shorter flights etc!

So with my circumstances, i would be very greatful if you would take your comments back.

Conrad,

I don't think Willem was personally attacking you, just making a point that other people in the world of Virtual Aviation see this as cheating.

To be honest, those people probably fly on VATSIM and work for very strict VA's called something like "Virtual Heart Attack". I think there is room for both types of VA, and it's the main reason I like EHM so much, it's more about the fun and a little more laid back, as apposed to being anally retentive and completely stressed out.

EHM-1798 Conrad:
yes ok,

but i just want to make my point clear that i cant really do shorter flights because of work and exams preporation etc,

it will just distract me and such. And with A-levels around 3 - 4 months away i cant afford not to be working.

so i try and conbine my work with flying and the result = long flights, i just want him to understand that.

EHM-0948 Bruno:
Hi,

I think you both have right. For instance, I also do long night flights because I want to fly but unfortunately I cannot be all the time on the computer because I work all day. So, my only way to do flights is to start it 22:00GMT and land it about 07:00GMT before going to work :).

But I also understand Willem's point, because he is defending the way of being more professional and try to be as much realistic as we can when we do a flight.

I think both of you have your point of reason, and we should understand eachothers and comprehend that on this hobby, there are many ways to have pleasure with it.

Regards,

EHM-0361 Karsten:
Bruno, there is only one small problem with what you do, if you are sleeping during the flight. You are to check the aircraft status every 10 - 15 min, according to section 4.6 of the EHM operation manual.
