Great Shots Tim, glad you like her, we have a tutorial coming in the next few days that will include the use of the INS so you can get plenty of practice in her before the event starts on March 30th.

Just to give everyone a bit of a heads up, the event mixes short and long legs with a manageable schedule of between 1 and 3 flights per week to be completed over a 5 week period. the schedule is as follows:

First week – 2 Flights (Short haul - Europe)
Second Week – 2 Flight (Short/Medium haul - Europe)
Third Week - 1 Flight 9 (Long haul - Africa)
Fourth Week – 1 Flight (Long haul - Trans South Atlantic)
Fifth Week – 3 Flights (Short haul - South America)

Unlike other events the flights will be open for one week and you can fly them any time during the week they are scheduled. I hope this meets with everyones approval. More details and aircraft bookings will be open soon.

Make sure you get plenty of practice in the old Diesel 8!

Hi Robert,

Judging from what is see, that is the MegaAirport London Heathrow X scenery by Sim-Wings (distributed by AeroSoft).

Absolutely gorgeous rendition of the real thing, and worth every cent for both FSX :[ and FS2k4 ;D !!

Just landed my EHM-1039 on the same thing... ;)

Aloha,

Stef

Yep,

I concur... This scenery is great although possibly a complete frame monster!!!
I have a feeling that the RFE London event will make my simulator look like a powerpoint presentation :];D
