Fly in poll

[AnonymousUser68]

Sadly my computer is playing up so no fly in this week. Instead I thought I should run an opinion poll so the fly in is at a time when most people can participate. Please vote for a day and time and if you don't fit in too one of the times above just post a comment.

Please vote people  ;D

...didn't we do this already? I'm confused.

6 people have voted but forum only counts 4. Am i missing something blatantly obvious.

[AnonymousUser68]

Sorry to confuse you Theo. You are suppose to vote for a time and day or in other words there should be twice as many votes than voters.

[-TheoGregory]

Right ok that makes sense. 4 people have voted but only 2 have voted for both options. Ok that makes more sense...

I'm guilty of half-voting That's because I really prefer fly-ins to be scheduled on Saturdays. At the same time each of the posted hours suits me well, so no point in voting for any of them.

Your not guilty lis. It's a poll and if you want something changed you vote. If you can make it to all the following times it's a good thing.

Its a tie between 11.00Z and 22.00Z. I have no idea which one to choose  ???

Okay, I'll get planning and expect this weeks fly in have something to do with TNCM and the beach approach.

How is the fly-in done? Is it on Vatsim or something. I'm interested in joining it!

[Lukasz]

Yes, we do fly-ins on Vatsim. Just show up on the appropriate airfield, at the appropriate time and we'll be happy to fly with you

Lis has given an excellent startup guide to vatsim here

Cool, I already have Vatsim. I just don't know how to do all of the atc stuff. I'll check out the link you gave me.

Thanks,

Okay Rush. When your online go to the Xsquawkbox menu and click "show who's online". It will then come up with a list of all the controllers in the area, once you find the one you want tune into it on the COM1 radio. Have a listen to what the other pilots saying and once you get an idea have a go yourself.
