EHM-1821 Javier:
ok, i'll try that when i have the time:)

EHM-0654 Murray:
Only other difference you may possibly get is:-

[*] Take off, call airborn, climb rwy heading - Controller replies "Report final" (readback "Will report final <callsign>")
[*] Thru 750AGL turn left/right, continue climb to circuit alt (usually 1000ft AGL).
[*] Turn left/right again - if any other traffic in the pattern, call downwind.
[*] When runway 45deg off the shoulder, turn left/right again - if any other traffic in the pattern, call base.
[*] Turn onto final, report final and landing request (hold off, touch 'n' go, full stop), expect clearance as requested.[/list]

Circuits are a great GA practice tool.

EDIT: Finally, a page that explains circuits for idiot dolts like me... http://www.avsim.com/geoffschool/combined/circuit.htm

How about Euroharmony has its on Wikipedia set up on this site, were users can add information for others to use, like a knowledge base. I'd gladly add stuff over the summer. ;)

EHM-1883 Matt:
For training in ATC, we'll have to find close active airports.

For Unicom training, I recommend Birmingham to Coventry. They are very close airports.

I've had a few problems with my mic, so I might not be able to teach Voice, so Murray will have to do that.


I think another big thing is Charts. When I fly offline, I rarely use charts, but when I'm online, I'm always using the things!
The way I use charts are the Airports I fly to the most, I have all the charts printed off, and they are in a booklet that I just pull out whenever I need it. If I don't have the chart, I just have it as a saved page in the internet. That way I can pull it out and look at it. The Only problem with that is you have to have a mental picture of the chart in your head, because It's annoying to keep on looking back everytime you get a new instruction, so I have all the charts for Schipol, Heathrow and Brussels.

Tim,

It's really funny that you say that, I've been thinking the very same thing - a wiki for EHM (MT, I haven't actually said anything about this yet, I know...) might be helpful for a number of situations (not least of which, the VFA/Training department...)
