Crazy Idea of fly-in

<< < (2/3) > >>

EHM-2029 Sotiris:
The more i read, the more exciting it becomes!!!

Bring it on!

EHM-1465 Dominic:
I think this sounds like a great plan for our Hub - let's all have a think about suitable routes and themes for the fly-in and put them here so we can all consider which one is the best!

Great idea Vincent, everybody feel free to join in and give ideas, this could prove very popular :P

EHM-1821 Javier:
or maybe flying a plane under the control tower of LHBP hehehe... :] ;D

EHM-2089 Vincent:
Never in my dreams did I expect such a huge response to my crazy idea. From the mails I realize that many are a game for it. All we need is the correct time and numbers.

As mentioned, we got to see the aspect of controllers too. Lets give this some time, let me think of a pattern we could fly, that would make for around 100 miles or so. With that once we file the plan, all of us got to stick to that plan only, something like this

Take off
c/m 5000ft  - in the process turn to waypoint 1, and so one to waypoint 2 etc
and then finally to waypoint N and lo descent to LSZH and clear off the runway so that the aircraft behind can land in peace and keep the gap good so that we avoid go arounds, which would mess the entire thing.

I would suggest that even if a controller is not there, on Vatsim, if all of us could be on the common local ground frequency we should be able to do good. Someone can be the leader and all can follow him!!!

Let me sit and think of a flight plan, in the meanwhile, all of you too can come up with flightplans. The longer the plan, the better for numbers joining the crowd, but lets restrict it to less than 100 so that we can rap it up in an hour or so!!!

Hi Dominic,

I was today trying to figure our some route which I could propose for the fly-in. I guess we should restrict the flying to only the Switzerland FIR (LSAS) right? In that situation it would be easy if we could have only a CTR controller if possible. I was thinking of a pattern like Take off from Rwy 10, and landing on Rwy 34. And after take off, a couple of right turns and possibly left turns too to make things interesting.

I was also looking at SID's and STARs which could be used or can we go off the book in making our own routes for arrival and departure.
