3 planes?  If we have to switch, well, some people will fall behind because it takes along time to switch if you have lots of planes

just dump anything flyable in a backup folder

For the planes... i guess extra, an-255 and something in the way of concorde / tu-144
 

Russian planes: IL-76 (all standard length ones),  Tu-154 and Il-62, Tu-134 and An-24RV&&&&AI flightplans and repaints can be found here

A quick check shows 217 planes in my aircraft folder, it does take time to change from one to the other.  I suppose they could be shunted into another folder, just for the race.

Three planes is going to mean three times as much repainting for those who want race numbers!  Please hurry up and TELL US THE PLANES INVOLVED!!!!!

We start in the Extra at our local field and fly to a major airport, where we get into Concorde and zoom halfway across the country before bailing out and flying down in a paraglider to finish with a spot landing contest!  Am I close?

Laps, eh?  Plural, so more than once around a circuit.  Probably three times around!

well, let's say I would like to race with you... Grin
I never repaint any aircraft before Embarrassed, so is it mandatory, and even if not how do you do?

I never did such a race, and I'm afraid my flying skills won't be good enough, but I just looking forward a good fun with you...
see you

I know what we can do!  Rename your aircraft folder Aircraft.backup

Then make a new Aircraft folder.  Copy and paster the planes we are using in it, so that you load faster, and, if everyone does it, we dont need to worry about load times.

Painting your aircraft is not manditory, you do it only if you want to.
To find out how to repaint an aircraft, please visit a (basic) tutorial which I threw together here

This next course is turning out to be one heck of a course!!
We hope to see you all at the races! Smiley
