I\'m still flying!!

<< < (29/44) > >>

EHM-0948 Bruno:
Hi my friends,

I just wanna tell you that after Mabarara, the worst part has passed.

From now on you just have (if my mind doesn't play tricks) one more visual landing at a soft aerodrome later. The rest is to international/very popular airports ;)

Regards and congratulations for being until here! Definately this is the most difficult event ever!

EHM-1671 Ben:
Yay!!! I love this event but in all honesty the grass runways are killers ;) I think the hardest part about landing on grass runways is that they are not clearly visible from the air. When I landed today at HUMA I was not able to see the airport until I was 3 miles from it!! Of course, I had to make a go around.

This has been a wonderful event so far, I've flown over some of the most beautiful countryside I've ever seen in FS. Middle East, here I come...

EHM-0471 Peter:
Wow....just landed successfuly on that bloody grass of HRYU-after going arround three times. This airport's approach is really tricky.

Bruno. I don't know what should be wrong, but I got some penalties for my last two flights for some unknown reason, since I am 100% sure I didn't make a mistake I am accussed for., let say: no beacon on and engines started and similar.

EHM-0948 Bruno:
Hi,

The beacon lights problem normally is related with you use the "auto-start engines" mode (CTRL+E).
To avoid it do the following thing:

With your cold and dark panel do:

1. Turn on all the generators.
2. Turn on all the lights except the LAND one.
3. Start MANUALLY the engines by clicking-and-hold on every engine until the N2 fires up (select EI2 on the right PFD for this).

This way I can assure you don't get beacon penalties. If you start with CTRL+E then you get it somehow ...
