I\'m still flying!!
EHM-1199 Philip:
Dropped out along the way...
Sorry to report I had to drop out early on this Pro-Pilot event. Got to Wednesday and ended up at a late evening meeting and having made a flight Tuesday it's always considered a little too much virtual life if I make my only time in the family house a virtual flying experience. For the sake of home harmony I had to miss Wednesday and consequently slip from the schedule :) Always a shame to admit defeat but the tight schedule on this one was too much for this virtual pilot. Thanks to those who took time out to organise the event and sorry to drop out so soon.

Phil, i know exactly waht you mean - the schedule for this event is just too unfriendly for those with famillys and other things to do with their lives. I wonder if for the next event we should have a start and finish date and it is then up to the individual to complete the flights with in the time?? I must also say though that i have found you can still fly the flights even if you are a day or 2 late on the schedule. Am just managing to keep on schedule with this event but only because i have had a few days off work this week.
Good luck to all still flying this event, Jim
EHM-1703 Philip:
Well, I must admit guys, I must take the blame for the fast pace somewhat as I voted to "Hurry up" the event to give us enough time to recover and get ready for the next one! ;)
(I am not saying enything else about it so do not ask!!!!)
EHM-0654 Murray:
And for anyone else that fecked up the timing, I've extended C888 to today because of real-world stuff yesterday preventing my flying (PhilN, sorry for not replying to your IM, but I didn't see it until quite late in the day...)
[strike]I'm flying it now, and I'm going to fly C889 straight after - offlining to avoid anything getting in the way of me completing.[/strike]
That's it, I'm giving up on the event. I can't get my CDU to run reliably, FS is running like a dog, and to add fuel to the fire, I think one of my 512MB sticks is starting to die. Time to format and reinstall I think.
Best of luck to those of you still in it.
EHM-1998 Steven:
Any chance the last day will get extended any? I just found out that I have to go out of town tomorrow and won't be back until the 25th or possibly the 26th at the latest. I can do leg 12 before I head out tomorrow, but I won't have access to FS until Saturday. I'm flying leg 11 now. If it doesn't happen for some reason, I'm sure I will survive but I'll be a bit bummed at getting so close. I've learned a lot from this event and that counts for a lot. I appreciate all the work that went into it.
