European Tour: HOP 2 - JOIN IN!

[Sir_Crashalot]

Paul, just show up in your Turbo Baron. Most of the others will probably do the same thing. The ten minutes or so that you gain flying the hop above 250 knots is minimal. And like James posted anything that flies between 200-250 knots will do fine.

PS it would only be half the fun if you're not there to lead the flight, providing the flightdata.

I downloaded the Legacy and tried it out...
Nice speedy aircraft...
But....
France is littered with loads of Non Directional Beacons (NDB's) rather than VOR's, and unfortunately the Legacy is not fitted with an ADF radio and indicator gauge....
So navigating by NDB's is out, without a new radio re-fit...
...!
I tried the Lear Jet but that's much too sophisticated for Fozzer...and it never wants to slow down...rather like my Austin Allegro...!!!
So it looks like my Trusty turbo Beech Baron with it's complete radio stack...flying at 220 knots max......!

...I may try a Legacy radio refit later on... ...!

Cheers all...!

Paul....NDB's all the way tonight lads... ...!

[Sir_Crashalot]

Great you can make it tonight, James. Glad to hear you tried the Legacy, Paul. See you tonight, lads.

250 knots + eh.... you see fozzer my spitfire is quite useful , 250 knots and some power to spare  :D

wealthysoup...spitfire mk 14, 5 blade constant speed prop, 2 stage supercharger, handles anything you can throw at it    ;D

[Sir_Crashalot]

Fantastic flight again. Lovely scenery as well. Long hop though. But a lot of fun.

See you all again next week I hope,

Crash

[stuart1044]

Totally agree crash, ill be there next week

[Tweek]

Very enjoyable flight! Look forward to doing it again sometime.

[Serpent_6]

Great fun as usual

did some research on the Lagacy and that thing is amazing as in FS cruising at 280 knots at 8000 feet.
Its a kit plane and it costs 55.500 dollar...i want one

they make more cool planes, check the IV/IVP someone please make that thing for FS http://www.lancair.com/Main/index.html

Only just managed to get my computer up and running.

Couldn't work out the problem, until i realised that my hard drive cable was broken. So i had to find a replacement.

And i ran out of time, again,  :'( for the tour.

Sorry Chaps. Not alot i could do..
