Re: Slice it in half...
Well I'm over Greenland at the moment, having negotiated the MagPole...ATC certainly got confused by the very rapidly changing Variation and I had to cancel my IFR flightplan and revert to radar following...I'll re-file after I'm past Iceland as I would like radar positioning to the ILS. I've step climbed on FMC's instructions and am currently at FL390...I get one final step in about 4 hours. I set off at dawn on New Years Day 2010 but now it is pitch dark up here and even I am confused

Re: Slice it in half...
Well I got to Exeter OK but all in the dark so not a lot of pictures:-

A glimpse of Northern Lights.
40 seconds of streaming video of the same glimpse...Best viewed full screen:-

Taxying in after a very long night.

Parked.

That was brilliant Peter, thoroughly enjoyed watching the changing of colour of the lights, really was surreal.

Re: Slice it in half...
Yup.. pretty poor on the part of CS. The same panel bmp is used throughout and considering the detail lavished elsewhere.. what would it have taken to have put a reg gauge there. I've never checked the reg and didn't realise it was a 767 which is even more disgusting though it doesn't bother me because I never fly it

Re: Slice it in half...
AH right
I guess that Sel-Cal belongs to the 767 too.
All very well bleating about thei clever details but that is a shameful oversight
......should be easy enough for them to do

Re: Slice it in half...
Easy for me to do anyway
Unfortunately, the same bmp is used for the VC too though unless you find yourself on your knees.. the reg is covered by the glareshield but still partially visible

Peter, you might want to check out Emil Serafino's RR 757 soundset. The best RR 757 soundset IMO. Can be found at Avsim with the file name 757_rb211v4_snd.zip
Error 482: Somebody shot the server with a 12 gauge.

Thanks Mark,
I've just downloaded it and I'll listen to the new sounds as I work my way down Africa
