World's Challenging Approaches -3 |NZQN|02-09-2017|16:00Z

Postby SHM » Mon Aug 21, 2017 2:09 am

Hi everyone,

The World's Challenging Approaches is back after a short while (5 months :lol:) because I was mostly busy with college stuff, but starting from this leg the tour will be monthly.

Thanks to Vincent (KL-666) and J-Maverick16 for accompanying me in the last leg while the others were busy with RL since it was Easter. The last leg to MHTG was completed without any drama :) The winds favoured 02 and we performed the RNAV 02 approach.

This time the airport we would be flying to is Queenstown (NZQN) in New Zealand.

When?
2nd September 2017 at 1600Z

Where:
MP server : Official FG server
Voice Comms : mumble.allfex.org (only)

Here is a video of the approach. (NB : This is a RNAV approach) (Trivia : This video was shot by a VATSIM-NZ member who is now the FO of Jetstar ;) )

Airplane of Choice :
Narrow Body Airliners are expected but feel free to bring any other plane to accompany us (V12 - Concorde)

Report what planes you will be all bringing so that we can get them beforehand and avoid the blue-yellow :D

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?
