Looking good... ;D...!

Probably the usual chat window for me.... ;)....!

Teamspeak always seems overly complicated to me... :o...!
(One day....maybe)...;D...!
LOL...!

Paul The Chatterbox.... 8)...!

P.S. Just installed twin monitors for FS Navigator and Radios...
...so...
Expect loads of radio chatter from Fozz... ;D...!
...you have been warned... ;)...!
LOL... ;D...!

Hi Lads...!
As this is a long'ish trip, our Jimbo suggested using the Beechcraft Air King 350...
Now this little baby is fine and dandy for going very fast...
..the problem I always have is stopping the bleedin' thing...!!!
It has a pair of those new-fangled turbo-prop engines, which take [glb]FOREVER[/glb] to slow down prior to landing... :o...!
...and even if you do manage to land, you are likely to run off the end of the bleedin' runway before you finally come to a standstill... :'(...!
This normally terrifies all the passengers...
..and involves a lot of mess to clear up afterwards...
...so...
If you don't mind...
I will be using the Turbo version of my trusty Beechcraft 58 TC, (Top Cat)... 8)...!
Pretty nifty in the air, and easy to land...
...close the throttle and it quickly slows down...as all good piston props should do... ;D...!

There you go, my hearties...
Fozzers infinite faith in good, old fashioned, piston props.. (Carburettors of fuel injected)...or even Turbo Charged...;)...!
LOL...!

Cheers Lads...!

Paul The Piston Man...8)...!
(Jordan is also in favour of the piston method)... ;)...!

Fozz, are you using the reversers when you land the Kingair?
If not, use them, it helps...a lot. :)

Tee-Flippin'-Hee

The Joystick throttle only shuts them down to minimum RPM...!
..by the time I have taken my eyes off the scene in front of me, juggled with the mouse to reverse the props, I have buried the nose into  the ground, wiped out my nose-wheel, and deposited all the passengers into my cockpit...
...where it gets very crowdy...  :'(...!
LOL...!

Paul...bleedin' turbo props...I HATE the bloody things... >:(...!

As you touchdown on the runway, hold down F2 instead of pulling the levers in the cockpit/vc back via mouse (I presume that's what you're doing because you said"....juggling with vthe mouse....." ??)

Hope this helps :)
