Look in the stats, there are actual and estimated times for all our destinations.

Otherwise subtract the ETD from the ETA and you got the expected flight time as all times are in zulu....

Hi Karl and welcome to the VA, sorry for the late response but frequently I get behind with myself. Hope you enjoy your time with us and once you become accustomed to flying on the VA. Just a few answers to one of your questions that seem to have been ommitted.

Q.) can i use ap

A.) All real world pilots use the AP soon after take-off, and use it nearly all the way through to the landing. Gives you more time to put your feet up!! :lol:
again sorry for being a pain but im a infantry man not a ex pilot sorry..
Karl, you don't have to justify yourself or even apologise to anyone on this forum.........................apart from the moderators that is. :whistle:

Regards Nigel.

Hello mate..

What are you flying and how are you trying to fuel?? (Standard, Compare or the other one)..

I guess you're trying standard so give us an idea of how much you're trying to put in and we'll see if we can't sort it for you :wink:

Bounce.. me again.

Had a look on FlyNET and see you're booked on the Dove AMYO. This currently has 59kg onboard. Looking at a similar flight done by Lee Symes (EGBB-EGNX).. he burned 38kg so...
Set yourself up at Brum then reduce the sim using the Windows Key. Open the client.. select Display booked flight to make sure it reads EGBB - EGNX in the Dove. Then select Fly Booked Flight and the fuel page will open. Make sure the radio button is sitting on 'Standard Mode' then click OK. The next fuel page will open and there will be a box at the top (defaulted to kg) so type 38 into that (delete the zero first otherwise it will try and load 380kg). When you're happy it says 38.. click Fly Flight and reopen the sim.

........................and make sure before you reduce the sim that you have 'pause on task switch' unchecked or the aircraft won't get refuelled.
