Would it be better if we used one common aircraft? I have no idea which one you want to use.

choose an aircraft that has similar speed to the one i have chosen.


Which is?

Ben...!

Always use one of the default aircraft so that all the planes appear as their correct type...?

The mileage is quite long so a fairly speedy aircraft is warranted...
I personally use the default Beech Baron 58D...180-200 knots cruise... 8)...!

(Or the Cessna 182S?....Mooney?..etc...).

I plan the route with the help of FS Navigator and the radios running on auto-pilot between VOR's and NDB's... Grin...!

Cheers...!

Paul.... 8)...!

...don't forget....DEFAULT aircraft...Wink...!

Ok! I'll take a Baron with you. Cheesy 8) It will be like going back in history! I haven't flown much at all in the Baron since I flew it in FUII a few moons back. Grin Or maybe I should say a few half moon bays back!  Wink  I think I logged more than 130 hours in that aircraft alone.
Those FUII ATC transmissions really stick with me on that sim, where I first learnt the basics. 8)
"Baron, this is air approach! On guard! Please pick up my frequency on 134.5!"
Ahh then were the days I didn't know how the radio worked. Tongue Grin

- Sorry about that.

I used to suggest an Aircraft for all of us to use, but the past couple of weeks its been your own choice what you fly.

Cheers.

I made such an embarrasing landing on the final airport. Firstly I had to dodge some crazy pilons.. Roll Eyes who the idiot placed those there? ??? Then the sync thing went and was so madly out of order that I could barely stay straight. I couldn't remember the key code to stop it (yeah had the sync switch thing on already).

It was sure brilliant flying with you guys, and dont worry about your landing saitek because I seemed to have deselected my 2nd engine  (I think thats why I had trouble with them mountains Tongue) and why I was everywhere on the runway Roll Eyes

The biggest problem is trying to write. Roll Eyes It kept clicking off my chat window and as I would write it would do all sorts of things to the plane! Nearly made me crash several times!

Hi Ben...!
Tip: On the twin-engined aircraft, (Beech Baron), bring up your "control lever window", make it small, drag it into the panel, and observe the throttle, prop and mixture levers...they should always be level with each other...not out of balance...!!!
Keep an eye on your dials as well...tacho, vacuum, CHT, EGT, fuel flow, etc,...
LOL...!
