Only five days left until the Event starts and I see there are several pilots a looong way away from KPAE ;)

Is anyone thinking about a group flight to the starting line or perhaps for the first leg on our 13th birthday?

Untill the 12th of May I'm having a hopefully wonderful vacation in the south of France, so I'm unable to make it for the first leg of the Spring-Summer Event. The legs of this tour are in my opinion somewhat long to fly (together, online) on a weekly evening. Nevertheless I hope that we can continue our joined flights online on a different moment.

Meet you on Mumble!

Hope to see you for the second leg Peter and my flight plan proposition for the first leg KPAE - KPHX : SEA J5 SUMMA IMB J523 ELY ILC PGS DRK
I think is around 2 hours for this one if someone like to fly together by IVAO or VATSIM I'll be at Snohomish County (KPAE) Tuesday 29 around 1850 zulu :)

Sorry but I will be late for this first leg (and besides, completely unable to fly today). I hope to catch up with you later in the event.

Same here, but that should be no news ;)
After June, my PPL theory will (hopefully) be done. Until then, I just can't promise anything regarding sim flying. I'll probably start the event in the odd "off hours", as I find them.

Had a very relaxed holiday in the south of France. And though sunny days with an average of 23 degr., good food and of course perfect wine are important ingredients to make living as enjoyable as possible, I did miss my weekly joined online flights!

So, being back in cold and rainy Holland, some increase in weigth and completely sober  ;), I made my belated first flight of the Event today. I really don't have a clue how far you guys have managed to fly yet, but is there a possibility that we join up for leg 2 or next ones? I guess that flying during the evening isn't an option, because of the length of the legs., unless we start very early.

I wait for your suggestions and try to make the second leg sometime tomorrow.

Meet you on Mumble!

Peter.

Hi Peter, Gian and me were flew the first leg. For the moment 4 Queens of the skies are in Anchorage and 5 in Phoenix. For me is almost impossible to fly leg 3 PANC-RJAA these days, but who knows ::). I'm free  ;D  Thursday 15.05.14 0700 - 1500 zulu, Monday 19.05.14 1030 - 1500 z, Friday 23.05.14 0830 - 1500 z. And of course some days after 1900 zulu, for instance Wednesday 14, Thursday 15, Monday 19, Tuesday 20 and Wednesday 21 but not before 1900 zulu as you know...
Hope to see you for the third leg or next ones with Gian, Trevor, E-J, Andrei... ;)

Hello Peter,

welcome back home Peter! I see that you resumed "work" immediatly. As you have probably seen, a number of us are already sitting at RJAA. It would be nice to plan the RJAA-VHHH flight as a group sometime during next week... but not too late in the evening....it should be roughly 4 hour flight...I've read that David can not make it before 19.00Z....that means we should have a lot of coffee on board...Let's see how things will develop....

In fact, I could fly before 1900 zulu, I mean between 0900 - 1500z Friday, Saturday or Sunday 30, 31 May and 1° Jun ;D and of course after 1900 zulu too :D and I'll be on holidays between 2 to 6 Jun and of course more time to fly, because kids in school, etc.
Hope to see you then ;)

Thanks Gian and David for your response! Because of the long duration of these flights, it seems a bit hard to pick a suitable time to make a flight together online. Still, I've given it a try and placed some days and times from the 27th of May (only during the day) in the next Doodle-link: http://doodle.com/7scr2di39u57ypd6

I hope one of the days and times in the schedule will fit. If not I hope you will have some other suggestions!

Meet you on Mumble!

It took me a while (a long weekend of leisure!) to publish these pictures, after we  (David, Trevor and me) had finished the fourth leg from Tokyo to Hongkong. Nevertheless the screenshots show the heavy ones of Trevor and David and... the very tiny  B738 I flew. For some reason I couldn't get the PMDG747 running properly on my W8.1 machine and I hate to fly the default one. Still the distance of this leg and the next 4 ones are within range of the B738, as long as there's no one on board ( I threw all my passengers and crew out ;) )

The Doodle-link for the next flight: leg 5 VHHH Hong Kong Intl WSSS Changi: http://doodle.com/58dywuiv8gmqqfsk
Since this leg is about 1500nm long, I supposed we could give it a try during the evening!

Good to see you guys got to fly together again! And nice to see some graphical feedback too :)

I'll be having my last Air Law lesson next Thursday. After that, there's one more exam training session, and of course the exam itself. No other theory courses to go to; I have passed 6 out of the 7 exams. So next thursday is the last of the mid-week evening theory sessions, so it looks like my calendar will show some more flying time available in the near future :)
I have only flown two legs of this event, so I need to do some catching up. But I'm on my way!

Hi E-J,

get (successfully) rid of your last exam and join us back asap for the rest of the tour! As you have noticed we do our best to re-build the useful group and are keen (thks to Peter), to publish nice pictures again ;).
See you guys this evening at 19.00Z (ie 21.00 Paris time)...I will provide coffee for everyone!

Unfortnately no coffee for me Gian, sorry! But something very urgent came up this afternoon, which makes it impossible for me to fly this evening. I hope the three of you have a very nice flight and a safe landing in Singapore and see you on the next leg. Don't forget to make some screenshots; you can borrow my camera!

BTW: I prefer somewhat stronger than coffee, unless you've put something in the coffee! ;)

Meet you all on Mumble!

Peter
