how to make long flights more...
EHM-2089 Vincent:
Flying with FS Passenger is a good idea, but thats why you don't need to use PP. Otherwise there will be too many things controlling you. The best with FS Passenger is when you do a take off from a dangerous zone and get your plane riddled with bullets and then, following emergency procedures!!!

I usually try to follow VOR s and if they are around 50 nm appart that keeps me on watch; also, a DC-3, for instance, without GPS and no VOR is quite a challange if you try using the ADF to trck VORs or even flyng ADF; landig VOR instead of ILS is also quite interesting. That's my way to get more of a flight. Before joining EHM , in IVAO, I have about 1800 hrs and 95% of the flight are around 1 hour; happy landings, Cmt.
EHM-2089 Vincent:
Hi Roger,
what you have suggested in following the VORs is the best thing I do to keep myself busy. VORs Intersections etc all keep you busy!! Also I keep watch on my flight plan to make sure that I tick mark that I am at the correct altitude when passing the same. I usually delete my flight plan and make the punching using the "direct to" button on the GPS to point to the next VOR or Intersection. In this way, flights of 2 hours durations really become a joy and also you make sure that every minute you are doing something, like feedign your passengers, checking fuel, failures!!, or where you are right now!!
Cheers

How about listening to iTunes? That's what I've been doing recently

I'm still trying to learn all this stuff in between t/o & landing :%:]
