SimV's server now has a hoplist!! 8-)

It is currently set in Hawaii, and will take you through the various islands, but is being expanded to take you on a tour through the South Pacific islands and into, and around Australia.

There are no annoying, constantly repeating, reminder messages here, so nothing to distract those who are not interested in this feature.

To access and start the hop, just type: ?hop  into the chat box while online, and it'll tell you what to do from there.

This will be a work in progress for a little while, so if there are any special routes in this area you would like to see included in the future, please feel free to post them here.

Thanks, and enjoy!

Shane

Sounds great, hopefully we'll see more online participation now.

Great.

Sweeeet! I have been waiting for this for a while. I usually hang around other servers with hops but I'll be back at Simv now!

Great work Shane!  I'll be sure to check this out

HOP LIST UPDATE

[center][size=20]The Southern Pacific part of the hop has been added.

This hop list will consist of three main parts, two of which are now complete.




The first: A tour of the Hawaiian Islands that starts and ends at Honolulu Intl.

Shane, what the biggest distance between 2 hops? Would a DC-3 be able to make it?

Crash

The longest distance would be 1,265nm between Johnston Atoll and Majuro Atoll in the Marshall Islands. So the DC should have no problems.

After that monster, the longest is 713nm and the shortest is 391nm, and the rest average in between those.

There are 12 hops in the Pacific part. And each hop has a nice little island cluster to explore in between hops if you so choose.


We tried to get a good mix in this hop so everyone could enjoy it.

The Austrialian part of the hop list won't involve such large distances for the most part. Unless we go for a nonstop return to Hawaii!

Enjoy, and feel free to make any suggestions to improve it.

1265nm? Time to find a nice, fast but small jet...

Crash

Nice work Shane...almost finished all the Hawaiian hops (see freeware forum )

.mic

I tagged along too.

Glad to see people enjoying this!

I just finished the Hawaiian hop tonight. Next up is a nice long 713 mile hop from Honolulu to Johnston Atoll.

Sounds like a job for the Concorde!


[size=20][b]EDIT: The hoplist has been updated and now goes all the way to Perth.
