Hello everybody :)
Krzysztof Kajda EHM-2159,

EHM-2470 kivanc:
Hi everybody,
I am kivanc, this is my 1st article at the forum, and obviously I am new.
I would like to ask about the procedure of joining to this kinds of events. Are these event take place online or could be offline?
The announced schedule must be followed at the exact dates or could be accomplished in an interval?
What are the detailed cases of failures?
I could not reach sceneries -since 'avsim' reports a reconstructrion of library-, in that case are there any way of reaching these files.
By the way I am from Turkey, Çanakkale (Dardanel). I am 33. Working as a physicist at COMU (University). I am happy to be at EuroHarmony.
Thanks

@ Manuel - you're now on the list ;)
@ E-J - sorry about the timing for you, just that time of year I guess! Hope you can fly some legs later anyway
@ Bruce - within the folder for the DC-3 you need to have an extra texture folder called texture.ehm with the downloaded textures in it - I think this will be inside the file you call "Douglas DC-3" in your description - and as long as you have added the lines I mentioned above to the aircraft.cfg file, the plane will show up with our Museum livery on it.
@ Kris - welcome to the party ;)
@ Kivanc - welcome to the Forum and airline :)
The rules for PP Events are that they must be flown online (that is, connected to the Flight Logger which is connected to the Internet, it does not mean you have to fly IVAO or VATSIM) and you must fly each leg of the Event during the days listed. We are hoping the Avsim library will be back online by the start of the Event as they are very busy rebuilding it after a hacker attack. As for any failures that may occur, you should manage them as best you can and report them in the Thread that will run throughout the Event so that we can review any crashes or problems and decide whether any spare aircraft can be allocated - this will ONLY happen if a crash happens that is completely outside of the pilot' ability to recover ;)

Thanks Dom!
Ah well, that's life eh? The days I thought the entire world revolved around just me are long gone ... :) :)
I remember the Croissière Noire Event so well because I enjoyed it so much. So, I was really looking forward to this next event you guys kept hinting about. It's just too bad I don't get to start it off with you guys. Once back from my holidays, I'll drop a line to see if there is a way for me to cut in half-way, or start later and catch up or so. Or get another workaround to fly this tour PP (I only fly PP for EHM)
Well, see y'all around!
E-J
I'm not in it for a badge or so, so that's of no concern. I just like to fly, and even better: as a shared experience :)

Or to put it a slightly different way:
If the plane is lost and it's definitely not your fault, you may be given a spare plane. :-\
If the plane is lost and it's your fault, you most definitely won't get a spare plane. :(
So, and given how forgiving both the planes available for this event are, if you take your time and are careful and sensible, you'll complete the event with the plane you were assigned at the start.
