Greetings and felicitations!!!

You will see that this is a greeting and invitation from Easternhops.

Who are they? A Toronto-based group of flight simmers with members from all over the world. One of whom is your very own ZKBOB

The CEO and Owner of Easternhops is Pizza, apparently from both a love of ingesting them as well as at that time, being a delivery person of the same.

However, Pizza is one of the good guys.

Me? I am a lowly admin type, and of little importance, however, I have spoken to Pizza with the following idea in mind.....

The result is as follows........

NZFF is very cordially invited to make use of our 24 hr website for flying, and of course our Teamspeak.


Yes, NZFF has their own Teamspeak, but you are invited to make free use of ours as well.

The flight server is "usually" left at Toronto, but not always.

Sooooo the crux is this, Make free of the flight site and teamspeak if you wish, we have much to offer each other in the way of assistance and knowledge.

If you DO, the costs are simple and low. Register on our website. thats all. IF, and their is NO compulsion, you wish to donate to the operating costs, fine, if you dont, also fine. no probs.

Basic info..........

FSX SERVER IP
71.163.152.60

Have a look at our website and forum, particularly

Cessna Sunday



and

DC3 Wednesday



These two forum (Forii????) are our main ones, and we have sometimes as many as 40 to 60 aircraft.

Every few months, we have a get together type of group flight with friends on other servers and last one had 150 attendees

If you want to avail yourselves of this offer, you will be made welcome, and I will have some Kiwi company!!!

Also, right now, being 17 hrs ahead of EST, 8:15pm NZ Time, the server is mostly idle, make use of it~~!

Hi ya Bob , Got a little busy today .. but have really enjoyed the Wed - Dak flights and with so many in the air and to chat to so much fun .. the Cessna Sundays would suit many

Cheers Bob. Would be keen on your regular group flights cept the timezone difference doesn't quite work for me here in NZ, not much of a morning person
Have to have a crack at using the FSX server tho for one of ours and see how it works out tho

Timezones are a nuisance for me, too, even if multiplayer was not a bit too much like organised fun for my taste.
I am sure Ian can advise on the etiquette for meeting new people, and blasting them out of the sky a few seconds later (or maybe )

Nice thing the times Zzzz 's due to the running time of the this MP suits everyone's time Z .. and getting up and running - easier than changing the clocks backward and forward for daylight saving.

Still have to follow specific rules but nothing like a VATSIM arrangement , Mike , I'd think you would have a real blast ... etiquette .. its quite amazing how ... best way to explain it , simply give way to the driver in front or FS pilot may have a problem you almost virtually go out and change his tire/tyre .. < Ianglish
