London Heathrow\'s 60th Birthday Event
« on: April 24, 2006, 10:28:08 pm »


The GB-EC and GB-EAC have been working hard and we know you've been waiting for this one so here it is!...

FULL EVENT DETAILS ON THIS PAGE

60 years on and Heathrow is the World's busiest international airport.. Founded in 1946, with one terminal – an army surplus tent, a short distance from the aircraft – there are now four terminals with a fifth under construction. Over 90 airlines flying to 190 destinations carrying over 67 million people per year call Heathrow home.

To mark Heathrow’s diamond jubilee IVAO GB division is proud to announce a commemorative event to which all International and Domestic flights are invited.
You can expect full coverage at Heathrow airport which includes two tower controllers and three Directors (Intermediate Director North, Intermediate Director South and Final Director) as well as both London Control sectors. If you've not experienced our "Real as it gets" Heathrow procedures yet then your in for a most enjoyable flight.

To help us provide better ATC service to you and for you please schedule your flights on the IVAO Booking System by clicking HERE.

Pilots participating in the Heathrow Birthday event who have scheduled their flights will receive the Aviation Celebration Tours and Events Award after verification of their flights.

But wait... theres more...

To reward one lucky pilot during the event, our friends at UK2000 have donated a copy of the fantastic Heathrow Pro scenery. The pilot landing or departing Heathrow (EGLL) closest to the mystery time will receive this reward.



(Don't even think of asking what that mystery time is cause I don't know it and nobody is going to tell you!)

Hope To See You There !!!

Pilots,

Plz make sure that when booking a flight for this event, DO NOT check the check box next to: Don't assign this flight to me but make it available for all interested ..

If you do, we wont be able to verify your VID to the flight, in order to assign the Event Award.

if you did book a flight and checked the box, plz return to the booking page here: http://www.ivao.aero/flightops/auto_scheduling/timetable.asp?evento=338 and press the BOOK link next to the flight..

Quick word of "warning" about the IVAO flight booking system; it only likes uniquely flight numbered flights and appears to only allow a single booking per flight.

Obviously, all EHM participants will be flying EHM5037, and all the FlyUK participants will have a flight number of their own... so... when building yourself a flight for this event, use "EHM5037-?" (replacing ? with a number or letter... check what's already there using the "sheet" below) and use a departure time 5 minutes after whatever is "current" (I've done a rebook of the flight I added as "EHM5037-1" with a departure of 18:35, arrival 20:20. This is 5 minutes after Bruno's booking, which I am calling "EHM5037-0")

I'll maintain the "spreadsheet" for EuroHarmony pilots, email me directly or post here with your "bookings" (I need to know what aircraft you are intending to use) and I'll ensure your flights get added...

EHM5037-0 18:30 20:15 EHM0978 (Bruno Falcao)
EHM5037-1 18:35 20:20 EHM0654 (Murray Crane)
EHM5037-2 18:40 20:25 EHM1343 (Jonathan Rasmussen)
EHM5037-3 18:45 20:30 EHM1883 (Matt Haywood)
EHM5037-4 18:50 20:35
EHM5037-5 18:55 20:40
EHM5037-6 19:00 20:45 EHM1617 (Iain Butler)
EHM5037-7 19:05 20:50

Done. (And thanks for doing the IVAO flight scheduler bit for me Iain... It's the one bit I don't like... Too fiddly...)

I'll book the -3 slot. It's late today, so I'll book myself in tomorrow, but can I be added to that list up there?

Is it ok if I use the Dash 8? I like that plane? If not, I'll do another flight for EHM, so either way, passengers get tranported!

Matt,

You won't half be slow compared to the rest of us (including all the FlyUK folks at a guess) but there's no reason I can think of why you can't use the Dash if it's got long enough legs for a flight of that distance. Just so you know, there is no class restrictions on events - as a Class 2 (or 3) pilot you would be allowed to fly any Class airplane for this (the suggestion being take a jet... ;D)

Added you to the event roster either way.

Hi Matt,

Please translate the sentence "A Harmonia de euro é a melhor linha aérea virtual no mundo" to "EuroHarmony é a melhor companhia aérea virtual do mundo" ;D ..

When you translated those texts, you ALSO translated the word "EuroHarmony" which can't be translated because it's a brandmark name.

Regards, ;)

When I did EuroHarmony, I didn't know how to do it, so I just seperated EuroHarmony to Euro Harmony, which can be translated, but I guess you're right. Once again, thanks for pointing that out.;D

Murray - checking over my calendar it looks like I won't be able to make that slot. Would you mind pushing me back to the number -6 slot departing at 1900Z and thus arriving 2045Z?

I'll sort the IVAO event booking to this effect, changing to number -6 flight number.

I'll have the -2 slot por favor...Boeing 738, no 767, no 738....lol Boeing 738 it is!

i clicked the book link next to the flight on the schedule page, and it disappeared:sI'm not entirely sure if thats supposed to do that, so someone correct me if i did it wrong...

In theory i should have booked myself for it

Done and done.

<strike>Razza, I'll check the IVAO booking system when West Wing finishes (15 mins ish)</strike>

Razza, the flight booking system didn't complain when I added EHM5037-2, so I'm gonna guess you did something wrong :)

Is in there now, with FP, assumed you'd be flying the B738.

Ok, I've booked mine. I've found the Star chart, but I've lost the Sid chart. Can somebody give me a link to the chart needed?

Booked mine as EHM5037-5. See you guys there, however I seem to be the one with the earliest flight, I cant go any later.

P.S. La Armonía de euro es la linea aérea mejor virtual en el mundo

It doesnt even seem spanish ;D, this is the correct phrase:

Euroharmony es la mejor linea aérea del mundo.

Cheers!;)
