[Jul 9 7pm PDT] PilotEdge B732 flyout SAN-LAS-BUR

[Keith Smith]

A number of us have been enjoying the recently-released FlyJSim 737-200, especially with shared cockpit. There is a fly-out on the PilotEdge network on Jul 9 from SAN to LAS with a quick turn to BUR, starting with a gathering at 7pm PDT at SAN, and then wheels up by 7:25pm PDT (or at least in the departure line by that point).

The route is PEBLE4.SXC LAX DAG.CLARR2 (for the B732 or any other non-RNAV jet), or use the KEPEC3 arrival if you are RNAV-capable.

Some of us will be doing shared cockpit flights and live streaming on twitch (myself and helipilot7), so feel free to follow along.

Anyone is welcome to join in any plane you like, but this is primarily a turbojet group flight due to the distances involved. If you want to fly a piston into Vegas or HND/VGT, go for it, but I'd suggest starting a bit closer, maybe from Bullhead (IFP).

If you haven't checked out PilotEdge, this is a good opportunity to utilize the free 2 week trial and experience what the network has to offer. Briefly, it's a subscription-based network that offers
-guaranteed ATC 15x7 within the coverage area (40 towered airports),

- intelligent support for shared cockpit via the SmartCoPilot plugin. The second person logs in with an @ at the end of the callsign, otherwise use the same callsign as the primary aircraft, the server takes care of the rest

- advanced radio system using real world frequencies at all times (no controller list). You just tune SAN clearance delivery, then ground, tower, etc. For this flight, it'll be SAN clnc (125.90), SAN ground (123.90), SAN tower (118.30), Socal Dep (119.60), LAX Center (119.95), LAX Center (125.27), LAS approach (125.02), LAS Approach (135.00), LAS tower (119.90), LAS ground (121.10). You don't need these all in advance, but this gives you an idea of the workload that will be involved compared to other flights you have done in the past on networks that don't utilize r/w freqs.

There is much more on offer, but for the purposes of this fly-out, that's the most important stuff.

Here's a video of the SAN-LAS route being flown with shared cockpit on PilotEdge:

I think I will be there!
