Whaddya all talking about? I've landed once on runway 7, and taken off out of runway 7 (the shorter one towards the buildings) into a 2kt headwind with the original higher payload three times now! Only problem is PC keeps crashing enroute! Attempting it again now...

EHM-0471 Peter:
Bruno.

I need an urgent help. During the flight to HAAB, some 73 Nm from the destination, just when I started initial descent, I faced a serious problems with my PC and lost the controls, then PC simply crashed. After some ten restarting I succedded and restarted FS. All was done properly, but I couldn't restore the last flight, so please, try to return unlocked flight C889 to Pro pilot, since I didn't crash the aircraft. I have no idea what happened to my PC.

Okay, I am all ears. How do you depart HKLG properly? I did everything I normally do on a short field departure. Flaps 50%, aircraft all the way back on the runway, adequate fuel only, released brakes, accelerate to 120kts, rotate. I crashed in Propilot and have gone back and attempted on my own and I keep hitting brush at the departure end of the runway right as I am leaving the ground.

Also, the runway is only a little over 3900 foot and dirt but the text for the event says both airports are very good. Is that a typo or do we consider a 3900 ft dirt runway very good?;D Seems pretty short considering the aircraft. I'm generally pretty decent at landing and I ate up every bit of the runway landing last night so I was worried about departure this morning.

All that said, I am having a blast with the event and I appreciate that we get two aircraft this time around. This is easily the most challenging flying I have ever done. I have filed my crash report and humbly await my new chariot. In all seriousness, if anyone has further advise on how I can get off the runway at HKLG, please pass it along as I would hate to be stuck this far along in the event. TIA

*EDIT* I think I have it figured out. If I aim between the two bushes at the end of the runway, it gives me a little extra room and I am able to get off the ground fine. Wow, this is a tough one!! Now I have to figure out how to do that in the dark.

EHM-0948 Bruno:
Hi,

I departed nicely without any problems from runway 25 if I am not in mistake ... Take a look at the new payload for that leg please on the events page. Also, don't bring much fuel .. i think 30% is enough (I got 60!).

@Peter: You have a new reserved airplane with tail id HB-AGB. Safe flights!

Regards,

EHM-0948 Bruno:
@Christian: Hi mate, I just delayed the leg C887 for you until tomorrow. Also, you have a airplane tail id HB-AGC. Please do the next flights quickly to gain time.
Also, next time please ask me to reserve the airplane for you so no one can steal your airplane ;) ..

Regards,
