Hello Mitch...

We have a similar problem with the "Time Zone" on our side of the "Pond"...6-8 hours in advance of EST- PST...

...but our charming Chaps from the U.S. arrange their organised flights to accommodate us "over here"...bless their cotton socks!... :-*...!

An afternoon 2:00 PM EST flight in the U.S equates to a nice, gentle, 8:00 PM GMT evening flight for us...joy!

Poor-old Aussies are <12 hours out-of-kilter.... :'(...!!

Paul...G-BPLF...FS 2004...having a nice Time!.. 8-)...!

My 3 in the afternoon is Mitch's 4 in the morning, and Paul's 8 at night.

What a wonderful global representation we are. ;D ;)


I wonder what the ideal time for everyone at once would be. :-? :D

I guess I'll just have to switch to a third shift life style for a week or three and fly with our Aussie friends. :)

I sometimes collect Mazza (Ozzy land) on some of my Multiplayer flights during the day, and he is some 8 hours in advance of me, which makes it very confusing...I am cooking my Dinner when he is ready to go to Bed... ;D...!

I wonder if they have just one Time Zone on the Moon?.... ::)... ;)... ;)...!

I have had the privilege of flying with both Paul and Shane seperetly although very briefly. I've never really flown online with anymore than 3 other people at a time, so these tours always look like good comradery. :(

Time zones are confusing enough as it is, then there is this daylight savings business. :o

Hello Mitch...

I generally keep this Browser open on my Worktop during the day to spot anyone who may be on-line at the time*....>>>

If there is anyone there, I generally join in and spoil their flights with my endless, and often/sometimes amusing chatter in the Chat-Box.....it's what I do!... [smiley=evil.gif]...!

Paul..G-BPLF...FS 2004...and a Chatter-Box... ;D...!

* providing that I am not in the middle of cooking one of my amazing Dinners...;)... ;)...!

..a nice gentle Hop for Shane and myself in the charming little Cessna 150's...;)...!

...one each...

Shane reckoned it was far too cosy for both of us together in one Cessna 150 ... :-[......... ;D.....!

Paul...G-BPLF...FS 2004.... ;D...!

Another wonderful hop through the mountains of Chile!

Although with a scary bit of ground cloud. :o  I was blind and on IFR most of the way. ;D

Hopefully the weather will be a little more clear tomorrow for the repeat trip.



And next time Paul, we can share the plane, but you're driving. ;D ;)


See you all tomorrow in Chile at 3pm EST. ;)

Sounds like you had a great time. :)

Shane, maybe an idea for a future hoplist perhaps, South America across to Africa?
