thanks i will refly that flight again just to see what happens, having crashed before i know how it looks and what should happen, absolutley no idea why i should end up at EGBB since its not the nearest airfield at any point in the route or the actual flight path i took. i think i was about to get a...

1. Equipment type DH Comet4 (dm's) 2. RW time of crash completely calm at 38000ft and .7 mach well within any "gust" limits 3. Were you using RW weather at the time of the crash? yes 4. How long was the flight scheduled for? 8 hours 5. Were you using time acceleration at the time of the crash? no bu...

so thier i was mach .7 at 38,000 ft drinking coffee when my two right hand engines flamed out oh i thought, i checked all fuel switches and they were correct desended down to 18000ft and relit both engines and climbed back up, i had about 900miles to go from EGTG-KJFK landed at KJFK but no beep so i...

vertical descent rate should also be a factor, i have bellied in in the past with a very high decent rate but low forward speed,
(OEI and wrong side of the drag curve in concorde)

then you havethe issue of its that max range when its light, max range when its empty, you could be talking 1000's miles here. the B747D will fly just as far as a standard B747-400, just not fully loaded, cargo planes are also a classic case and will be most impacted, since fully loaded wont have an...

the range issue is simply the wrong solution for the wrong problem, if i want a competative advantage i simply wind the specific fuel consumption right down, its very easy to do, the bright ones will be a bit more subtle about it. i have no problem about people using different models but thier are g...

minimum 70,000lbs for engine start since you need fuel in main tank 2 for the APU to start and also under no circumstances operate the outboard reserve tank valves (6k fuel, no real loss from 340k)

actually busy jet also fly constallations, yorks,argonaughts, DH89 etc, as an owner operator of my own aircraft for a long time i naturally know about fuel planning since unlike office wallahs, if it goes wrong i will be first at the scene of the ensuing accident, and the lower the performanace is t...

i dont see any website with any airline flying yorks or constelltions either, in those days flying for range WAS the adventure, you could never be quite sure what you would get, more or less, fixed range=fixed fuel,. may as well tick the unlimted box and be done with it, since it will no longer be a...

plus a blanket "range" would be inaccurate since thier are multiple factors here, not least the weather , i use real weather so use less fuel going east across the pond than going west and therefore have more range going east than west and sometimes that range increase can be significant

they are under used because thier are no long thin routes since in flynet the pax availble is in propotion to the plane size and not the route size therefore it makes sense to fly the plane with the most seats simple really, make passengers load proportianal to route size and not plane size, flying ...

yep busy jet also lost the aircraft it put up for sale from the list, no worries they were 20 seats or less,

we will write that one off to experiance.

yup it can be done as flynet currently exists but in doing so an oportunity for abuse exists since the intent is to have profit from only one flight however in making it work i also realise one pilot can actually make profit from multiple flights at the same time using multiple aircraft. flynet cant...

cheating how exactly, since only one flight is logged and only the "captain result" counts you can actually get one pilot flying multple flynet aircraft for a multiple result, now that is cheating what i have in mind to try will give one result but both crew get thier hours logged for the FSX 737 we...

cheers sorted it just after posting, we did a 2 up in the cockpit for a flight, damm it was hairy hee hee think we might have a work round so both can log the time will try tommorow
