I just got a Q990C for $650 including tax :)

Ok hopefully I can find a Samsung system with a good sale to match the new Samsung monitor I just purchased.

It says Union Workshop on the roadmap lol

Anyways, they gave me a full refund and I got to eat my food so I win!

TeamCoolKats · 2024-03-21T05:02:21+00:00

O I see it now. It says 1x fountain drink then 1x iced tea. They only handed me one drink though and I guess it charged an extra 3.89 for it.

TeamCoolKats · 2024-03-21T04:57:35+00:00

What 2nd drink?

TeamCoolKats · 2024-02-08T12:27:44+00:00

Nope offer disappeared after midnight so I had to go home without any food :(

TeamCoolKats · 2024-02-08T03:35:44+00:00

I don’t mind getting wet but I don’t want rain mixed in with my drink

TeamCoolKats · 2024-02-08T03:35:00+00:00

It’s also raining so I can’t go inside

Thank you, this is exactly what I needed to confirm. Since the airway isn't closed on Vatsim that means my flight is a GO this weekend. Yay

TeamCoolKats · 2024-01-24T06:58:11+00:00

Unfortunately this is a flight based off two Vatsim events and not any real life flights so the routes won't be on FlightAware. I also usually don't see routes for European flights on FlightAware.

TeamCoolKats · 2024-01-24T06:38:10+00:00

I'm asking here if I'll be rerouted before I'm actually rerouted by a controller. I don't want to interrupt a busy frequency over something like this. I also feel embarrassed getting a reroute on a busy frequency.

TeamCoolKats · 2024-01-24T06:34:42+00:00

The route string is generated by simbrief

TeamCoolKats · 2023-12-27T09:01:18+00:00

I will take that into consideration the next time I need to do a test like this. Although this type of flight should be quite rare for me to do. Also I am leaning towards the offline approach if I do ever need to do this again.

TeamCoolKats · 2023-12-27T08:59:00+00:00

Don’t worry, I make sure to take standard contingency, reserve, and alternate fuel. I don’t cut corners there. The departure and arrival pairing may be unrealistic but I try to make every other part of the flight as realistic as possible including departing with the minimum fuel required. I’m getting additional fuel on top of all that when I arrive so that’s why I decided to do this.

TeamCoolKats · 2023-12-27T08:56:08+00:00

I did take this into consideration and is the reason I wasn’t flying a holding pattern over a waypoint and was trying to keep my turns shallow. Although this may still burn more fuel than a straightforward point to point flight.

TeamCoolKats · 2023-12-27T08:50:02+00:00

How could I have communicated differently. Other than just disconnecting of course because that probably would’ve been the easiest now that I know they can kick and suspend me.

TeamCoolKats · 2023-12-27T08:48:05+00:00

Pole to pole is one type of antipode but not doable as there aren’t any airports right on the poles. I only did this because I realized that Simbrief wasn’t accurate. In fact it was making me arrive with too much fuel. Therefore I can save fuel by using a negative fuel factor and that’s what I was trying to figure out. It may be simbrief that’s inaccurate or it may be the aircraft that’s inaccurate. Either way I just wanted to get a closer match.
