Simviation Forums

Hello all, i am relatively new to this forum and this sim, but i am not new to aviation. I've used free sims for years and am genuine impressed with this sim...

Etc, etc.

Tonight at 8:30 EST i will lift off in the Globalflyer by Scaled Composites in an attempt to go around the world nonstop. This is why i bought this sim, and it will be extremely fun flying it. Expect me online almost every day after 8:30 or so to fly this route in managable chunks. I invite everyone who is still up to head down to the NASA Shuttle landing facility in Titusville Florida at 8:30 to watch the liftoff at 8:45. I would also hope that some people bring some high-flying, medium-speed planes to offer chase...

Because it'll get lonely up there VERY quickly...

Thanks in advance if you come,

Aaron.

I'd love to run a chase for ya, i'll do my best to be on but i have a couple questions

Cant do it non-stop if you fly manageable chunks! lol  ;)


oh and where can we find the plane so that we can see you?

There is a thread with a link to the plane called Scaled Composites Globalflyer by me.


I will fly the flight non-stop Sim-time, lol. one takeoff, one landing (or crash...)

good luck bro...hope ya live =] get enuf sleep though..and good luck..and what the i.p address of you online server

I'm going to use the SimV server... Unofficially, but that's where i'll be. Hope it's not a problem.

I'll be getting on shortly, and i will lift off at 8:45. I will stop the session probably over england, where i'll pick up tomorrow.

EDIT: I am now starting my sim. Get online if you have questions please...

Happy Landings,

Aaron

i'm off for the night, i'll pick it up tomorrow at 8:30.

Had fun BAW and GW.

I know its too late, but why didnt you start at Salina, KS?  Thats where the REAL global flyer lifted off

Yea why didnt we?  we flew all the way up the east coast and we took off from the wrong spot??  lol  ;) still a fantastic flight, even tho the 2 others with me couldnt keep from stalling. I really dont know why you had trouble! it was one of my smothest flights ever  ;D Fantastic flight model  ;D

Evryone should join tomarrow, were starting in air tho to continue from tonight  ;D

BTW: Aaron if your save doesnt work quite well we can start off from KBOS, our fuel was about 1630'ish right?

Oh and tomarrow night im busy at that time now that i think of it, i wont get home till 9pm my time, 0400 zulu

I guess you can just Ctrl-Shft-f your way up to us when you get home...

I launched from X-68 because that's where he took off the second time. Besides, the strip is a lot longer.

However, we (or at least I) won't continue to britain after i've completed my RTW trip, which is what he did. he was insane. I'll be landing at x68 when i'm through.

sos sorry guys, i had somewhere i needed to go last night and i couldn't make it... it was as short notice as my decision to start the RTW trip!

can you give us detailed instructions on how to find you in fs9 & fsNav, to see you, follow you & talk to you CHAT?           luke
