ProPilot UNHCR Event - Zero Day Fly-In!
« on: November 07, 2006, 12:45:46 pm »
Dear pilots,

As some of you already expected, we are going to repeat the last zero day fly in as we did at the last DC-3 event.

This time we will start on Friday, around 19:30 GMT, on our first flight from Luanda (FNLU) to Maquela (FNMQ).

The route should be direct. The simple as possible. Also, we don't suggest a very high cruise altitude. Our suggestion is to be around FL130/FL110.

On the departure:
- Turn off the "airplane crash with other airplanes".
- Try to take off as soon as you can.

After landing:
- Vacate as soon as possible to somewhere around the runway!

The network will be IVAO.

Please write your confirmation here.

Regards,

And: no use FS passangers! Old type, and possible malfunction.

After 20:00 ends interesting presentation in Spaceport Alpha, come group and lets fly.

Wilco (and remember folks, given it's really all visual this time, there's no shame in either going around or staying in the pattern for an extra circuit, especially if you're a little heavy on fuel...)

Hi,

Yes, true, it turns out-crash after you take off from the runway.

It would make it harder due to less friction, and I'm sure it dosn't rain that much in Africa.:P

Bruno. Until next Tuesday I'll have some serious problems with free time due to some duties I have urgently to do in my business. That means I'll be absent on Friday and will do these initial legs lately.

Good flying to all!

Good pilots keep their number of landings equal to their number of takeoffs. Takeoffs are optional but landings are Mandatory.

sure no probs hector just put the following line in your 'signature' box which you'll find in the control panel and then in 'edit your profile'....



Note : replace the four 'X's with your pilot ID number ( in your case 1749 ) and also have no spaces between words which i had to put in at the start and at the end of the line i.e it should be   - hope this helps :)

I myself cannot participate on the event, but I will be there on the fly-in, just for fun ;) I think I will imiediately follow with the 2nd leg...you may join for the practice ;)

Although delighted about my promotion at the same time i am heartbroken that i will miss my first event......   but i would like to wish all of you the very best of luck and hope to see plenty of screenshots of what should be a great event ;D ..... meanwhile i will continue on with my euroholidays missions, my eurobusiness missions and my swedish tour ;)
