Mid way isle of Milos

Destination ilse of Kriti, by Suda Bay, from where the British forces evacuated to Alex with Flying boats, under a raging attack from the Bosh.

BUT Suda is a military one lads, watch it or you will be attacked, not by the Jeries but by the Greeks

I would like to attend, but if it says GMT 8pm does that mean that in England it would be 9 o clock? I'm never sure with all this GMT crap. England is currently GMT +1


Thanks

Your time-zone conversions are off... Eastern US time is now ahead an hour since last month (Daylight saving Time), so it is only 4 hours behind GMT, not 5.

A tip: do what the military and the entire aviation world does: list only Greenwich time (GMT), aka Zulu time.  Let those who want to participate figure out what time it is for them. A search for "time zones" probably yields 10,000 pages... it's not difficult info. to find.

Currently 1345 EDST in New York...  1745 Zulu... ;D

I agree with RottyDaddy, one time would be much easier. I should be able to come along in my cessna 172, as long as i'm not busy

Nice flight guys. Really nice route you got yoursleves there. Sorry about being so late landing in Crete, trim packed in, and autopilot failed as well just after takeoff from LGML. First time, i have had my own pc and time to complete a tour multiplayer like this. Now you got me hooked!!!! Luke what addon for Googleearth is that you got there? I would love to use that!!!!
