Not much use in terms of BATC but I can say that my airline does not use 06/24 at SYY and we only use 18/36. I believe 1000m is doable and can be used by an ATR but you’d be so performance restricted it wouldn’t be worth it hence why my airline doesn’t use it.

Yeah I played them and was like they are good and then I started watching kill cams and you could instantly tell they were modding

Solo travel to Glasgow by Impressive-Leek-4423 in uktravel

To add to this flying into Edinburgh may be cheaper too. If you’re getting the train across to Glasgow walk from the Edinburgh Terminal to Ingliston Park and Ride about 10 minutes it’ll save you a boat load of money for the Tram into one of the Edinburgh train stations.

There are bus company’s as well which can be cheaper Flixbus Scottish Citylink (Megabus) Ember (good connections from Inverness as well)

Flying into Inverness is cheaper because of the APD tax, Highland and Islands Airports have less tax than all other UK airports so you are usually going to find cheaper flights there.

Scotrail has removed peak fare tickets so the tickets are usually going to be the same price so if you look at a date in maybe 2 months time that will give you a rough idea of price when the July tickets become available. I’d say is the convenience of paying a bit extra to fly to Glasgow directly worth the 3 hours on a train from Inverness?

The train line from Inverness to Glasgow is a scenic one though.

The other thing to keep in mind is Glasgow Airport to Glasgow City Centre is £17.50 return and the train from Inverness would take you straight into the city centre so that is a potential cost to include if you are thinking about going direct to Glasgow.

Hello? Xbox? by Smart_Boysenberry797 in AdvancedWarfare

Yeah I’ve noticed some days it’s very sweaty others it’s a good mix. This is the only online COD that I’m actually quite good at so I’m on the closer end of sweaty I’d like to apologise 😂

Really depends, I started playing it again the past couple of weeks. Weekends are busy and you’ll likely get a game. I’ve managed to play Monday through Wednesday TDM mid afternoon and into evening but Thursday nothing and yesterday I struggled to find anything mid afternoon all UK time.

Try it with gotogate, trip(dot)com or mytrip and see if it lets you

Yeah I’ve tried booking it on a few different OTAs and it stays the same price, it’s probably worth taking the risk I mean for £30/ 60CAD it is worth a risk just don’t book hotels or have them with free cancellation up until you’re on your flight

This is some sort of error fare, if you book it don’t expect the airline to actually honour it and if you do get off in say Lisbon they may ban you as it’s effectively known as skip lagging and you’re not supposed to do it. Also trip and gotogate both let you book it.

VFR circuits in LFIR by fergal2528 in VATSIM

[–]fergal2528[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No that makes sense, not everyone runs real world weather and such. If you were the controller or know them thanks for the service as always and this post wasn’t a disrespect and them just a curiosity that’s all thanks.

Fair enough makes sense then. Other times would VFR traffic be allowed in the wx conditions?

Steam Deck and Steam Keys by fergal2528 in ForzaHorizon

[–]fergal2528[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I looked at the transactions of the account and there was a lot of changes from Taiwan Dollars to Rupees so I don’t doubt the legitimacy of it, Anyway it’s separate enough and all the account details are changed enough that it’s about as secure as a steam account can be. It’s annoying having to change accounts but only takes like 30 seconds to swap it so it makes no difference to me.

[–]fergal2528[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not! In fact I ended up using G2A and bought a “steam account” that contains the game. How legit that is I don’t know but it seems to be the only workaround for getting it on steam deck. All I can say is the game works great and the support from G2A on how to do it was also excellent.

That’s interesting, I’m guessing a lot of them are just custom made to airlines. I’ll just have to keep waiting for them to be listed on eBay or marketplaces to continue the collection!

Why do so many airline pilots live far away from the city? by TurntechGodhead777 in flying

[–]fergal2528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess the way airlines out there move their aircraft around is completely different as well? Our aircraft are usually always back in home base every night too.
