RTW 2017 Race Practice #0.1

[Moses03]

FSX locked up. Was making good time too.

Baton transfer to MD.

[PRB]

What is it with the North Atlantic? It hates SOH pilots!

[MaddogK]

Down and green, baton free BIRK

[Spookster67]

I have the baton, BIRK to EGQS, in the SectionF8 F-86E/F RAF. Using FSrealWX.

Currently we've got "thunder-snow" at Rekyavik - and 30 knots of cross wind. Should be fun getting airbourne!

[MaddogK]

*sigh
I miss my Saber.

We should do a RTW in only F-86's.

[Spookster67]

We should do a RTW in only F-86's.

That would be fun.

About 20 minutes out, despite having had about three flame outs along the way (I think each time it switches fuel tank, it flames out). Or else I've forgotten how to fly it properly.

I've picked an airfield with ILS, but I don't see any instruments that are going to display it to me. Ah well, visual approach and GPS only. Thankfully it's a huge runway at Lossiemouth.

Edit: Yes, I had forgotten how to fly it. Now that I've found the fuel transfer switch and drop tank valve, the fuel flow is working much better!

40nm out - better drop down and find an RAF airbase.

Baton is free at EGQS.

It's 5:30AM in Rome; should get there in daylight.

BTW, I landed ELLX with <19 gals fuel to spare :-)

Forgot to fill the external tank. Eeeks!

[MaddogK]

*shrug
Musta hit a hole in the runway, was coasting to a stop, then boom.
<edit> Oh ya, 16R is severely bumpy in FS9. Is there a scrapepoint update for the AS F-80 ?

[Spookster67]

I have the baton ELLX to LIRF, in the Alpha DH Hornet, with FSrealWX.

Thanks, will reinstall and retest tonight and let you know if it fixxes all the errors.

Guess we need to update to the latest version: V2.0.748 R151. Was released yesterday.

Noticed I am still using R146.
