AIRCRAFT
While the aircraft type is non negotiable for this flight due to the distances involved and the size of the runways at NZCI and NZNR, feel free to use any of the default FSX CRJ skins, or either of Zoltugers recent releases..


and...(how could I have forgotten)

Specially for this flight Jon has made available a new Air Chathams skin for the CRJ

Download these skins using the links here:

A few things about the Chathams, hold on let me get my map...here we go...

Lots of whale activity around at the moment, you might get lucky and spot them on approach or departure. Watch out for the no fly zone, some strange going-on's reported in this area, they lost an aircraft recently around here and the locals report beating drums and strange cries in the forest, they have searched on foot but can find nothing, maybe you'll have a better chance if you make your approach over this part of the island. Cruise ships seem to have taken a liking to the islands as well this year, so pay attention as the end of runway 05 is close to the water.
To see any of this you'll need to download a very small scenery file HERE. Unzip the FNF folder, copy the unzipped FNF folder in your Addon Scenery folder, activate this scenery as you would any other scenery area. This folder will then hold any future scenery files we release for Friday Night Flights.
Speaking of the approach, youll find the various navigation maps for the Chathams and Napier here:
Chatham Islands/Tuuta Charts
NDB RNAV RWY 05 & 23
Napier Charts
VOR/DME RWY 34 NDB RWY 34
Well thats about it, any questions post em here or PM myself or Nik. That Air Chathams CRJ will be available until the end of the week before its released properly in June.
See everyone Friday.
. I'm not gonna be able to make it this week, sucks to be me
(now I know how you felt Keagen ) 

, and more importantly we tend to do these convoys with consistent aircraft types, and because Zoltuger has some cool skins I havnt flown in, and because I did a CRJ skin not a Learjet.
this week!
