Re: iFly 747, Charter Flights and LOA

Hi Peter, Thanks for your reply. My issue isn't whether the aircraft is authorised or supported, it's more to do with being required or optional. The PM states At least one of the aircraft models noted as required must be legally owned and used by each member. These are the aircraft that are used fo...

iFly 747, Charter Flights and LOA

Hi folks, hope you are all well. I'm looking for some clarification regarding the iFly 747 & Charter Flights. So long story short, I'm currently on my second Leave of Absence (LOA) due to technical issues. I'm now in a position where I've got my sim back and working but I don't have my aircraft (PMD...

Re: Proper Aircraft Selection Question from New Pilot

Hi Robert and welcome to the VA. Watch out as well when the monthly bid process comes around, failure to place a bid will mean you get one assigned automatically...meaning you might end up with a flight using an aircraft you don't own. I have been caught out a few times myself and opted instead to c...

Re: Overspeed

This is a common problem in FS9 as well. One of my first flights with Globe Cargo resulted in an overstress of the aircraft due to a sudden change in the wind speed / direction. As Allan says this will be due to the real world weather being updated and within the space of a few seconds you have went...

Re: Can't Fly Assigned Flight Aircraft

Hi guys, I thought that auto-assigned flights would correspond to the aircraft type or types each of us selected when we joined. I for the most part select my flights as this allows me to fly routes I am familiar with. I found on the few occasions I was auto-assigned a flight, it took a good few hou...

Re: Can't Fly Assigned Flight Aircraft

Thanks for the reply guys, I checked that the assigned route airports can take the 744F, which they can so I think I will do the assigned flight and throw in another open board flight to be sure.

Regards

Can't Fly Assigned Flight Aircraft

Hi guys, quick question for management. I inadvertently missed my bid last month and thus was assigned a flight (GTI592). The flight in question is flying the 767 (N650GT), however I do not own and have never flown this aircraft, I have only ever flown the PMDG 747. I am aware that the flight cannot...

N452PA

Thought I would share some nice pics I captured whilst flying my favourite aircraft from the fleet, N452PA (Polar Spirit). These were captured during sunrise over the East China Sea whilst flying from Seoul to Hong Kong. http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/4637/polarair1.th.png http://img204.imageshack...

My First Flight With Globe Cargo VA

Just completed my first flight in the PMDG 744F and need to be honest and say that if anyone was watching or could review the flight I would probably get the sack!!! :oops: Straight after takeoff I realised very quickly that the autopilot was not responding to any instructions from the FMC or the MC...
