Flying Online

[SeanTK]

I'm planning on being online during the following date/time. Unsure of route yet.

Server: Sim-Outhouse.net (SOH.com's multiplayer network)

Date/Time: Saturday, June 29th @ 3pm NZST......which is 11pm US Eastern time on the 28th (today).

Please let me know if you plan on showing up!

[Ian Warren]

I'm very sure i could stop in , do you run a Team Speak channel ? ... what is the usual aircraft you use in the case i might need to install .

[SeanTK]

Ian, I usually run without TS...instead just using the chat through FSHost. (I use FSX)
What Carenado aircraft do you have?

EDIT: I may do either Paraparaumu to Blenhiem or Wellington to Blenhiem. Something short in a light aircraft.

EDIT EDIT: If I'm flying "the usual" before or after, or in the future....you can download it here:

What Carenado aircraft do you have?

Oppps both my weak points ... don't own any Carenado aircraft .. the nearest GA type is the AG C188 and course the AN2 ... A mic connected to the FS-PC have not done that for many long years , i run comm's on another computer

[SeanTK]

Here's what I was thinking for light aircraft choices not counting Carenado:

An-2 (with Matt's NAC livery)
Flight1 BN-2 Islander
That freeware Po-2 biplane (may be a little too slow...)
Wilco Tiltrotor (BA-609)

If we go larger and non-Carenado, I would extend the route to maybe something like Wanganui - Blenheim, with the following:

IRIS A-10A
Lotus L-39
IRIS F-20 Tigershark
Wilco Phenom 100


Do you have any preferences on a route/aircraft regardless of the list above?

I would be tempted to get the 154 out but my airports would be limited and I would have to check ahead of time to see what I can depart from. Landing is less of a problem, it's the takeoff that can cause concern.

[Ian Warren]

Only one there the first list , AN2 , have all bar the Wilco 100 .. 154 is very very limited

We do have a TS channel address atl01.bargainvoice.com:7890 , i can always rip across the road and get another mic see how it go's with sound , require little bitta setting up

[SeanTK]

Let's do the NZPP to Blenheim route with the An-2 then. Don't worry about the mic...I'll just use text chat.

EDIT: I may hop on shortly and cruise around in other locations as well...

[Ian Warren]

AN-2 sounds brilliant , a good route would be Wanganui to Raetihi , ideal for the AN2 and be valley and gorge flying and course Mike did a nice Raetihi farm strip . just heading into National Park

[SeanTK]

That sounds good to me. I might hop on in a couple hours and cruise around prior as well. In any case, I'll see you on the server in a few hours!

[Ian Warren]

Be interesting to see how AN2 drivers may join in , Sean did have a link to your flight at SOH and do you need my IP address ?

[SeanTK]

I shouldn't need your IP since I'm going to connect to SOH's server. I have not put info on their forums since I'm catering to NZ time, and that would apply here.

[Ian Warren]

That's fine , perfect , got myself another mic , least one keep with my laptop , Win 7 on the FS-PC .. trying to get the dang thing working - not an issue on this XP-PC - tested and it works , still couple hours yet .

[SeanTK]

Don't worry about the microphone if you don't want to. I'm just going to use the text chat anyway.
Installing scenery now...

[Ian Warren]

I'm checking make sure all squared away and scenery installed myself , be interesting to see who comes along for the ride , i'll run the TS channel to keep all AN2 drivers informed sure we will pickup a few within the next few hours .

[Ian Warren]

I was across at 'TS3's Digital theme park' hour so back and had comm issues there - very blocky and lagged , now currently cannot connect to SOH ?

[SeanTK]

Keep trying at SOH, it took me a few attempts and there's at least 4 other people on. Typing from my phone now.

[SeanTK]

I just exited out. We may want to try on a future date. It seems like the SOH crowd may be inadvertently blocking other people from joining. I had to try a few times to log on.

[Ian Warren]

I have rebooted and com's using TS now ok .. still cannot connect to SOH .. better send a link to the page or the MP , never run a MP at the site .. even to navigated to a topic can be a mission .

Never a problem running a MP here .. simply say hey YO .. MP and away we go , Team Speak3 , best way to go is what we do here for a quick start flight .

[SeanTK]

I think people weren't configuring their systems correctly, thus preventing others from joining. I saw one other person make a few brief appearances but they kept getting kicked off too. There were around five SOH regulars on during this timeframe.
I guess I need to look for a new server. The NZInspire one seems to be down (or is not showing up for me) and Simviation was not showing up either.....
