Nice shots of the 1-11

Have a good weekend,

Nick

The lights look great..a really atmospheric night shot

Thanks for posting the pics Nige

Enjoyed the trip, however there are some payload/range issues with the -200 and 79 pax on many of the sectors.

I can do it using my calculations based on R/World figures but the FSA pax weights take it over the top.

Using A2A Shockwave Redux lights Garry.

Hi Nige

Yes...I thought it might be those...they are excellent

Light have always been, in in many cases still are, a great let down on flightsim

Ah.. Redux. I've tried to remember what they were called and could I??? Hell no! I might invest in that at some point

Nige.. out of interest, what fuel were you keeping onboard at landing? I had issues trying to keep 79 onboard just going as far as Gran Canaria.. in fact, I didn't make it!

I was using r/w standard EU-OPS reserves. I've got a spreadsheet that calculates required fuel and produces a loadsheet. Landing fuel was usually between 1000 and 2000kg although on one leg I got a big tailwind and landed with lots more.

Hello Mate

Rgr that It's almost a rock and a hardplace situation with the VA. I never like to land below 1hrs cruise fuel although I know the 1-11 is capable of landing on air! Likewise, I don't like leaving an aircraft with less in than when I picked it up and this compromised my pax capacity a couple of times Never mind.. I shall be a little more avant garde with the little tinker in future
