I still have this on my radar! I remembered last week and sat there dutifully for 15 mins waiting for others to join ... before checking and realizing I was a week early! :)

There are a few screen shots from the last couple of group flights in the screenshot area of the Long White Cloud discord server also.

Just two of us on Sunday night, ZKIWI and ZKDWF. Choice of DA40 meant quite a long slow flight - just over two hours. We were able to experiment with Discord's Screen sharing option, which was extremely easy to set up and use. Also, did some formation flying (a good idea for a future flight, maybe?) We were also getting some good frame rates too.

I think that is a good idea. The last flight had us all in similar aircraft ( all X Cub based) and it was good seeing them. I even jumped out of the RV14A and in to the NX Cub for the leg and apart from failing when i dipped my wheels in the lake and had to play catch up, it was great being in the same aircraft. I don't think it needs to be all the same exact aircraft but similar performance would be great.

Great enjoyable slow flight from Haast to Queenstown on Sunday night, with all of us (Dave, Ty and Robin) in the Cub X. Tried dipping my wheels in Lake McKerrow with disastrous consequences. Had to 'slew' my way out of the water.

Flew with Jeff Preou and ZKIWI66 (Ty). Had some hairy moments with the wind, and quirks with post SU9 glitches such as distorted ORBX mesh.

Usual 'Three Musketeers' on Sunday's trip - Dave, Jeff and Robin. We all had problems landing at Fox Glacier (depending on what scenery you were using). The default scenery has a rather large hump halfway down the runway, as some found out too late. Flying out of Fox, we all had to circle a while to try and get over Mount Cook. Then, out of Mount Cook, we had repeat the process to get over the Alps, and onto Haast. Here's some pictures... Pays to have the correct scenery ... he he !! This was sure one climb ... Crossing the Alps to Haast was absolutely stunning ...

Good flight gents, cheers. I'm thinking a flight around the Coromandel might be nice one day.

Yeah, I missed this one as well as I was busy, but was likewise looking forward to it, especially being in my 'area' (-ish, in that it was the South Island). Next time...

I was in the freeware Dee Jing RV-7A and it worked out well. Still haven't worked out how to track a flight plan or a VOR on the autopilot, but altitude and heading AP worked well. So my first real M/P went well, and I look forward to another one. Thanks all :)

Cool, thanks Rob. Sent out some invites. I'm on my world trip in Italy right now (FS) and have battled for an hour trying to work out how to restart a flight plan part way through at one of the intermediate legs. Couldn't work it out, so modified the plan to remove the first two legs and re-loaded that. Then just getting ready for departure, dropped my kneeboard onto the ground beside my simrig ... whereupon it landed on the on/off switch on the power board ... yep ... one of *those* evenings...

There is a "Long White Cloud" discord that I am a member of, but cannot remember what it is? Something flying or flight sim related, 'cos there is a "Pilot Lounge" in there.
