perhaps then I may have under-estimated my experience level in flight sim. Since flight sim 2000 and the invention of the flight planner I have done
many a "short hop" between various airports.
In fs2002 & fs9 however, I've taken this a step further by flying a set of "fictional routes" which I would use in my own "virtual airline" a setup
which is now very real thnx to fspassengers.
tnx to re-installs and two new pc's as well as playing it on a m8's machine I've never kept 1 definitive pilot's logs so I don't know how many hours
I have in the sim total. However, Since buying fs passengers, I can hardly keep myself away from the pc!
This is my routes.
UK ROUTE
EGSS-EGBB
EGBB-EGGP OR EGCC
EGGP/EGCC-EIDW
EIDW-EGPK
EGPK-EDIN (edinborough, can't remember code)
EDIN-EGNT
EGNT-EGNM
EGNM-EGSS
each leg is rated by fs9 planner as between 15-30m to fly, but i've now heard that this is wrong as it assumes you r flying at max speed and doesn't
take into accounty taxiing, climbing, descending & traffic patterns
EUROPEAN LEGS (Cant remember some codes)
EGSS-LFPY
LFPY-LUXEMB
LUXE-HAHN
HAHN-OBERPAFHOFFEN
OBER-KLAGENFURT
KLAG-MILAN (linate)
MIL-PISA
PISA-ROME (ciampino)
I then return home by reversing the route. One thing I might do is when I get to rome next is to commemorate my upcomming holiday to greece by
flying flying directly from rome to corfu. This for me might be a long leg, but not sure!
