Firmly stablished in our route, now going to IRW,

We are flying succesfully the FGMEMBERS server, and it has a great response. It is a very fast server, with better latencies, and much faster speed, which is much easier for the heavy traffic :D


See us in the Map :D

A few more pilots are flying with us in the regular server
KL666 ar234 and D-00707, we are keeping an eye on you guys too


A note: IRW is exactly over KOKC, the very first destination of the Tour.

O my goodness, not a good landing.
Sorry, I had to leave guys :(
Bt it was awesome to fly, despite Mumble closing and having to go early.
Nice pics!
@IH-COL, what did I do wrong on departure?
To my understanding, it was climbout to 1000AGL, turn 240 till DME 9 from PXR, then turn 140, report, and await instructions.
Did I not do that?
I most def. Turned at 9DME!

Very fun tour and the new server worked much faster with the large amount of aircraft than before. I wish I got to stay for the whole thing, but I got some good pictures.

Thanks Everyone for a very awesome USA Tour experience.

We got to learn how to get into our own server, which has many advantages over the FG servers. ... but of course being the first event on this server some of you guys had a bit of a time adapting.

I wasn't the sharpest of the crew today (blush), that's why I miscalculated 9 nm and was surprise at Lego turning too early when he didn't (you paid the price of being among the first birds, lego), and my landing, as you had seen was unintendenly a real chaos; creating the USA tour monument in Charlott'es Airport :blush:

I will make a summary of the leg sometime next week. It was a very entertaining event, which we all grew to love... :D

And I'll prepare for the next announcement, which is going to feature an unusual aircraft type :P


Thanks everyone for accepting the call to flight together and have great fun,

IH-COL

It was a fun flight! Too bad I had to leave before I could land my A346 (screaming little girls decided they wanted to go out for pizza)

There's always next month. I say we head to Boston for thanksgiving in E-Jets
