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!

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!

see you

Don't worry about winning the race, just come along and have fun with everyone else. You'll see other people turning the wrong way, getting lost, and crashing into hills because they're not looking where they're going! As long as you're good enough to take off, fly to another airport, then land again you should be fine to join the race. Until then try joining in a multiplayer session to get used to flying with other people, and to make sure your connection and online settings are working okay.

Most important of all - have fun with it! Grin

Grin

(I'm not offering to do repaints for other people until I know what the planes will be, and how much work is required to paint numbers on them...)
