Let's Up the Ante on the Air Race!

Postby Scottler » Sun Aug 17, 2003 5:06 pm

Okay, I'm en route to MSY...let's up the stakes a bit, shall we?

How about if you crash, you're out?  Let's make it as real as we can!

Any thoughts?

Crashing is Gods way of telling you that you're out of the race!!!!

Sweet.....I couldn't find a Mustang that I liked, so I'm using the Corsair.  (Bleck.)  

Maybe I'll find a decent plane and I'll restart. lol

Good luck to everyone!

Oh, BTW!  Don't tell me where you're going!  I  don't want to know your route!  That was part of the racing, remember?

 Yeah, I thought the race was from point a to point b, then the next leg would be announced...or something like that.
Still no linked images allowed around here Paz! Naughty...

Oh, noooooo! :o

Here's what I though we had going:

Fly a (secret) route from Seattle, WA to New Orleans, LA making as many pit stops along the way as are needed (fuel, rest, etc.)  Every time we stop, we take two screenies of our flight analysis for that leg: one at the beginning of the FA, the other at the end of it.  Then we save those shots and at the end of the flight from Seattle to New Orleans we post them here on SimV and whoever's time is lowest gets the . . . uhhhhhh . . .

OOOOOOH!  I gotcha now.  We're starting at SEA and ending at MSY.  The rest is up to us.  That should be easy enough.

See you all there again!

hey all this race stuff has given me another pretty good idea..check other post for the first one

hows about this......each take the same plane lets say stock corsair and start at either side of meigs runway facing each other on the right hand side of the runway so u dont crash on takeoff.......takeoff and land on a runway and stop at ohare then takeoff again a mad dash back to meigs to land the same way you were facing to takeoff to make it fair....then first one to make it to the fuel thingy and stop wins keeping to taxiways of course.....could be a multiplayer game with 2 players at a time unless u have a lot more runways say start off at ohare and use meigs as the turnaround..just a thought
