RTW 2017 Race Practice #0.1

[Spookster67]

I have the baton, CYHD to CYMT, in the FSND B722.

[Spookster67]

Baton is free at CYMT. Quite misty/foggy, and with no ILS I had to find it visually, so took two goes at the approach.

[srgalahad]

aborted due to FS lock-up

[srgalahad]

Thanks for the thought K.
I say again...
I have the baton CYMT - CYYR
WOP P-51H P-51D (Tanks)
Default wx

[srgalahad]

At cruise altitude, with 81 kts on the tail. The 'box' says an hour until descent and then another 15 to impact... errr... landing.

I suppose the Labrador weather will be at it's winter finest

[MaddogK]

am shadowing in default 747

[MaddogK]

greenage- just in case

[srgalahad]

Baton is free at CYYR

[PRB]

I have the baton, CYYR - BGBW (Bluie West One!) WBS P-51C, default real WX.

[Taco]

I will pickup the baton at BGBW and, hopefully, land at BIRK using default FSX WX, Will be flying Douglas B-45

[PRB]

About 30 minutes out.

[PRB]

Baton is free at Bluie West One! (BGBW) Bit of a cross wind on landing!

[Taco]

I have the Baton, from BGBW to BIRK, using real FSX Weather. Flying the Douglas B-45

[srgalahad]

Belatedly flying wing for Taco
BGBW- BIRK
B747SP
FSX Default WX

[Taco]

Rob, take over. Snow storms here lost power just enough to screw up the flight, crash computer.

[srgalahad]

RGR!
Time for a backup (power supply)
21 minutes out.

[srgalahad]

Well, that was dismal...

100* wind shifts at 100kts on descent. Even a 30 knot buffer + speed brakes couldn't protect the aircraft from overstress

Baton is back at blustery BW-1 (BGBW)

[Moses03]

I have the baton BGBW to BIRK in the FSX Jahn HC-97G. Default real wx.

[srgalahad]

Well, let's try another variation...

I have the baton BGBW - BIKF
FSX Default B747-400
Default wx

[MaddogK]

Seems everyone wants a piece of this flight:

I have wing BGBW- BIRK
SOH Tigercat, AS weather

[Moses03]

Well this is fun. I bet I blow up first.

[srgalahad]

Well this is fun. I bet I blow up first.

You lose.
Sim went 'click' and froze again.
Baton is passed... to whoever can handle it

Odd.. this comp. ran FSX fine until I hooked up the X-52 stick/throttle.. now it is unhappy

MORE pressure to get the new box set up and software loaded..

[MaddogK]

I thought about taking a jet, but I heard wind shift and though about that benign Tigercat. 1:17 at current speed.
