Hi there

I've made a flight plan that makes the plane t/o go to a certain checkpoint (fictious airport) at fl150 and return...so far so good...but I'd like to know if it is possible to have multiple check points in order to make two or three turns before returning to base, is this possible?

hi cleobis

you don't want it to do TnGs at each one do you?

If you do a normal multi leg flight plan, just make the departure time at each point of the leg less than 20 mins after arrival and it will fly around for a while without landing and then depart on the next leg

you need to compile the plan once to find what the arrrival times are and then insert the departure times to get the desired result.

Hi, thks for the reply:) no, I don't want tng

I tryed something like that, but I made the diference between the arrival and departure of only 1 minute, is this too litle time? I made a test and flew formation with the AI and we ended up going in circles in the 1st waypoint, and after some time I just quited and assumed somehting was wrong..maybe the 20 mins...that it usually goes in circles, as you say, had not passed...

I'll try it again...

thks

P.S: I forgot to mention that I'm using fictional airports, basically because I want to create air refuelling cirtcuits in the north sea...so I took the coordinates from the cirtuit I wanted and converted them into airports and gave them an altitude of 15000ft. will this work?

thks agina hehe Wink
