HI CaRaMeLo, Tunisair wet leased some Swedish and Spanish 737-300s at various times. Don't think they ever operated any in their own right. Three repaints of the leased-in aircraft up on the org now. Cheers. https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/39492-tunisair-b737-300-ixeg/

Hi all.. Today I decided to do a long haul with the lovely 737-300. I dont do long haul that often since I prefer shorter flights, but wanted to push the limits with this bird. The flight was from Las Vegas (KLAS) to Honolulu (PHNL). Route distance is 2469nm and the flight was estimated to take 6h25min, with a average headwind of 34knots. I really had to kick out some passengers to be able to do this flight. So the ZFW was only 38.4 tons and with 16 tons of fuel. Flightplan: As you can see I planned with CI 0 to get the max range. The cruise level was FL360. (Step climb at HEC) Planning tool is PFPX. 4h30m into the flight. Soon top of descent. Finally see some land And at the gate. I landed safely on 08L PHNL after 6h30m with 2.4 tons of fuel left. Just as planned. The fuel usage was spot on all the flight. Always interesting to see for every waypoint you pass if you are ahead or behind on fuel. But no supprises today From vataware: https://vataware.com/flight/59883dfd5352336271000002 What is your longest flight with this bird ?

i do assume you are xplane 11? this is a well known problem recognized by laminar already and expected to be fixed for 11.10, happens to any aircraft.

Thanks for the reply! I think I've been doing the takeoff procedure wrong all of this time. I'd normally do 40% thrust, then hit TO/GA and was not putting the thrust levers to full power afterwards. I however haven't had the chance to test this out yet until later today. I'll report any issues, thanks again.

Yesterday I was back to where I started this unplanned world tour adventure. Very fun to just plan one leg at the time and explore destinations you would never visit in "normal-mode" simming. And big kudos to IXEG. I had no issues with the aircraft or CTD during this tour. Only a couple of failures, so the QRH had to be used My route ended up like this.
