hurricanemk1c 195 Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 Hi all! Well, I ordered Wilcos E-Jets on Wednesday, came on Friday! So, Northwest 170 boarded, took off and then I had to go out :sadblinky: Here are the shots! Today, I did a Lineage 1000 flight from EIDW - EGCC! No shots though!

rosariomanzo 545 Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 Got her two weeks ago, it's a wonderful aircraft. Nice shots! :mrhappy: Link to post Share on other sites
hurricanemk1c 195 Posted October 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 Thanks Ross! The 1000 flight was a tester as Skylines use 190's! Do you know where the fuel planner is? Kieran Link to post Share on other sites
rosariomanzo 545 Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 The fuel planner, strange but true, is in the FMC! You have to type "FUEL" in PERF INIT page 3, LSK4R. This way, the FMC will calculate all values for you, destination and alternate (if you provided it in the route planning), and will load the aircraft also, considering standard taxi and contingency additional quanity. Think it's strange, but absolutely nice. Link to post Share on other sites

dgor 0 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Great shots Kieran! I love the "mini" E170. Glad to see you're enjoying the E-Jets - flying them "by the book" is a lot different to flying the usual jetliner fan diet of Airbuses and Boeings - although rewarding and strangely addictive when you get it right :-) Dave Link to post Share on other sites
