Yeah, it really was fun, aprt from the fact my sim crashed three times to the dektop. Thankfully FS saves it exactly where one is a split second before. Makes loading so much easier and I lost only about 2 miles each time, which I made up with extra throttle. Hence one reason why I take the King Air - has the speed when needed. ;)

..interestingly...!
When I first logged on to the the Caribbean Multiplayer flight last evening I accidently connected to sams Simviation Server....85.10.244.109...port 23456
I was the only one there!, (Tweek popped in for a while), whereas logging back onto WS Pilots server, 66.147.177.124, port 23458, revealed a clash between a couple of other WS Pilot Members and ourselves during the flight...!!!
All of the WS Pilots ports were busy at the time!

...therefore...
I wonder if it might be an idea to give sam's Server a trial next time to avoid clashing with other WS Pilots Members flying at the same time...?

..just a thought, Lads...;)..!

Yeah - the other guys were annoying. But then I guess we were to them too. ;D
Mind you I had one guy following me all the way and he kept trying to cut me up etc.  >:(

Hi,

I'm fully aware of Sams server set-up, but i want to be sure that it will work successfully for the tours (without cutting people off etc) So thats why i havent decided to make it our "Default" server yet. I'm going to leave it a few weeks to see how go's etc and see if it is fully successful, which is the reason im using the WSP servers for the meantime.

Hope this helped.

I'd sincerely love to join, but it's 3:30 pm midweek and I'm at work then. Glad everyone is enjoying themselves, and it's great to see your site developing so well Jimbo.  :)

Thank you very much!

This is just an Idea, but how about i organise the same TOUR, but organise two times for the flights.
Like, keep the Normal tour at Tuesdays at 8:30PM GMT, but also add a date for the Americans, or anyone who didn't make it on tuesday.
So that way, everyone can go on the tours.

So for example, i would plan a tour for a Tuesday at 8:30PM GMT, but have the same tour for the Americans (or anyone else) on a thursday night at around 11pm GMT which would be what in US time...
Although i will only be able to make the tour on the tuesdays, it would give other people, who find it hard to make the usual Tuesday 8:30PM GMT time(s).

Let me know what you think.

I'm also thinking of buying a webhosting package, because the one i have now, has ad's on, and i feel is a bit slow.
I would also be able to create a domain for the website (.eg simalive.co.uk) what you think?

Your second tour time would be great. 10:00 pm edt would be ideal for me. That's 03:00 gmt. Thanks for the Amer/Canada considerations.. ;)

...come on, Jimbo...!

It's 10:00 AM Tuesday now...
...and I desperately need the map and the flight plan for the second hop, to enter it into FS Navigator, refuel, check the weather in the area, empty my bowels, and obtain clearance from ATC.... :o...!

...stop messin' about... ;)...!

LOL... ;D...!
