Re: Taxi speed penalty during take-off run

Ben/Dave I think you gents are on the right track -- Im using Scotflight scenery and in five flights have only been dinged once (my own fault) BUT - I get the start flight "chime" on every flight at about 100AGL after takeoff - which to me would indicate that the new client is sensing something at t...

Re: Value Calculations

It would seem that there is something wrong with the calculation as alasizon said - Joe you need to review the figures there seem to be some airlines that are still getting way over 200% - at VHA we onkly have 25 and 50 showing and we arenot worth just worth 8 bill so it makes no sense -- even the m...

Re: AFK flights, why bother?

Its not real :) so who cares --- makes about as much sense as people who crow about the Statistics board -- dont mean nothing so why bother even bringing it up -- If someone wants to fly in compression or get up and walk away from the keyboard , its not skin of my nose The only reason for using FSA ...

Re: Ferry / Temporary Flights

Re: Ferry / Temporary Flights

Joe I like the idea - would be hard to code? And the answer to you and Chris's training questions, the really silly thing is of course Today 90% of training is done on the simulator. Back in the bad old days flying training was and still is considered Part91 flying here, and is paid on the same scal...

Re: Ferry / Temporary Flights

John Actually I had thought about Repo flights as well - We shift aircraft around between divsions frequently and that would be a good option _ Also another thought for Ferry flights - If you are going to differentiate between revenue and Ferry by cost - then heres a thought - Someonce once asked "H...

Re: Ferry / Temporary Flights

Arriving late as usual I really like the idea - For what its worth - when we (real airline) bring aircraft from Europe (And I am about to shephered six across in the next three months) The same crew brings them the whole way (In our case - Stockholm to KEF to Bangor and then to Tulsa for acceptance ...
