Cheers guys, it really is a blast to do this stuff. I ended up replicating the circuit file every 90 seconds, and it looks like rush hour. But as Steve points out, first you have to fly the aircraft...

The lead in is 10 % of your groundspeed so for a 180 kt G/S it would be 1.8 nm and 210 kt 2.1 etc. The other factor to consider for your arc approach is the track miles around the arc. No point in descending too early and then having to waste fuel levelled out with power on. The way to do this is with the 1 in 60 rule. This rule essentially means that 1 degree over 60 units in length will be 1 unit wide. Therefore 1 degree over 60nm will be 1 nm. So what does this have to do with arcs? Well most arcs are 10 nm in radius. 10 nm is equal to 1/6th of 60 therefore 1 degree will equal 1/6th nm...

It's been a long slog, and a lot more to go; around Africa, around the Middle East, and then down through the Asias... I'm in Gran Canaria now.

the third and regularly used approach is the RNP Yankee curved approach from the south probably used about the same - if not more than - the ILS.

Thanks Charl ...seems odd to answer with my post on another thread. In warthunder , most of the British aircraft are in the one place for the purpose of a test flight ... some on the airfield at Ramsgate , and some are on a carrier just off the coast. Im not sure about the extent of this "world" but it seems to be just a few hundred square k's around Ramsgate and Dover. The combat world extends a little more . If you select a German or French aircraft , you fly in their zone . Most of the U.S stuff is based in or around Pearl Harbour (for test flights) .... Japan is in the pacific ,...

Will never beat Charls air show Spitfire vid . Don't recall that one, there have been a lot, true... Any event it's clear you have a gift :) I found the Geforce Experience video recorder thanks Robin, and it works beautifully. When there's a bit of NZ Aerofly scenery released I'll post a clip, it is so smooooth.

There are some nice shots there Scotty B. :rockon: Cheers mate! Pity this was on FSX. It was looking great and performing great (90% of the time), but the other 10% was far too agonising. I.e crashes, error reports etc. I couldn't handle it anymore and ended up making a system and platform jump to P3D. I'd never look back now!

Hello Nick - it doesn't come with a manual :o . This link will give you an idea of what it can do: I am running it on Win7x64, FSX SP2+Acc. It's free, it does impact FPS but not disastrously, so I only use it after consulting MetService and the Earth_null Wind map. The NOAA Metars option is apparently for flying offline...not sure I follow that; it is either live weather or it isn't. ATB

Cheers, Mike, thanks for that. Just one suggestion to anyone who wants to try this scenery, at the moment it is summer-only, hence the rather abrupt switch to default snow in these screenshots. To overcome this, just set the season to summer, or at least anything that isn't winter:)
