  1. Thank you! O pero es mejor de decir muchas gracias!
  2. Hello everybody, I searched this forum but can't seem to find an answer to this one. I just tried to calculate my trim setting. I want to load the plane with all the 50 people it can carry and let each of them carry one bag. I want to use 9000LB of fuel. The calculations lead to a LITOW of 11,24 and a TOW of 22.795KG. This leads to a %MAC of 7 which is too low to give me a trim setting. What am I doing wrong? Sincerely, Peter
  3. Hello everybody, There is something I just do not get about planning my flights. Here is a situation I got myself into this evening: I planned a short flight from Aarhus (Denmark) to Oslo (Norway). Here it is: EKAH RADIS UP615 TOR ENGM. And this is how I came up with it: 1. Aarhus has no SID so I chose to fly direct from the airport to the nearest Waypoint on the airway I wanted to follow. (RADIS) 2. From there I followed an airway (UP615) that led me to a point from which I could enter an appropriate STAR for ENGM. (TOR) 3. Now I have to pick a STAR and that is where my problem begins. For ENGM there are different STARs for different runways. So I assumed that since the runway in use is dependent on the direction of the wind you don't know what STAR you will have to use until you hear from ATIS or ATC what the active runway is. So I decided not to choose the STAR. I printed out the two possible STARs for my flight and decided to tune into ATIS or ATC upon arriving at TOR. 5. But at TOR of course I was still way out of reach of ENGM ATIS or ATC. So I did not know what STAR to pick... Where did I go wrong? How does this work in real life? Thanks in advance, Peter
