Re: BAC Test Performance Test Flights

Funnily enough, that's what the chief pilot said when he called me into his office!! Told me I was a mile off with the fuel, I dashed back to my desk, looked at my notes and went back and said I can't have been, which is when he dropped the '18lbs' on me. Mediterranean Express/G-AZUK 1987

Re: BAC Test Performance Test Flights

I used to have the BAC flight planning manual knocking around somewhere with all those tables in it. Must have got lost in a move sometime :wall: First flight I planned with them was Luton-Bologna and I was 18lbs out on the burn-off!!

Re: Cloud9 Phantom Question

RAF Phantoms had an INS system that was, to quote an F-4 Navigator, "accurate enough to determine which hemisphere we were in" :lol:

As you suggested, Dave, I just use the airline callsign (mainly BRITISLAND :lol: )

Re: Yikes!

I think all of them just shove thunderstorms in whenever there's a reference to CB's or TCU in the METAR instead of linking it to TS.
