Well ... it's possible to do it manually (I need to go to the log tables and do all those calculations, etc) so it would consume me a lot of time ..

But maybe it's something interesting to put on our development queue ;) ...

I would like to say that Peter's idea is excellent. Wish it could be implemented.
BTW Bruno,
I sent my email but I have not yet received confirmation that I am in.
Best Regards,
Hector

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

I'll not take part in the complete event (not being a fan of the 74x...) but if we have an online "first leg" I'll accompany in my private CRJ 200.

Hi Murray,

Yeap, I thought about that too.

Please arrange a special fly-in for us if you can ;) ... I would vote for 3/4 of March ...

Hi,

Just a simple question - How to avoid the beacon penalty on the PMDG 747-F ?

Thank you

Hi,

We just made a piece of code that will remove that penalty when you submit your flight.

This sounds like a wonderful event.
But what about us lowly ranks? Do we have to achieve ATP by the beginning of the event or are we allowed to fly birds outside our EHM class?

the planes will be set as Class 1 planes so low rank pilots can also fly the event :)

like the MD-17 is a Class 6 aircraft

Hi,

I just sent all the emails for all the pilots that asked for an airplane reservation.

I count 41 pilots. Definately a record! Congratulations to all of you :)

Please, send me an email if you did not receive my email. Do not write here that you had received it please.

For those who will be flying PMDG 747-400, check this nice tutorial! ;)

It's for the PAX version, but it should help with the freighter version!

The Meljet (freeware) model is up. ;) If you have the pax version of the 747, you can share its panel and sound set if you prefer that one.

Stay tuned for the PMDG textures ;)

Quick question. Robert, i know you must be putting in a huge amount of work painting the aircraft livery for us which is greatly appreciated. Will the PMDG repaint be finished by the 1st March??
If not, will we be allowed to fly the first leg or two using the PMDG house livery for the 747-400F until our repaint is ready?
I only ask as i bought the PMDG 747-400F especially for this event - dedication or what ;).
Many thanks, Jim

@ Jim

You are not alone, i bought the 747 and the 747F from PMDG, with this event in mind. More than dedication......LOL

I have the beast almost domesticated. My last flight with PP, overspeed  below 10000ft, after a missed approach...eheheh.

Do you have the 747F operation manual from PMDG?

Cheers
