Re: WT2023 Flight 6
this flight I failed to find LISI, nowhere it was showing, not in LNM, not in Skyvector? Also asked IATA https://www.iata.org/en/publications/directories/code-search/?airport.search=LISI, but also IATA has no airport named LISI https://i.imgur.com/DXzWRXS.png So ultimately I did follow the route sho...

Re: W T Flight02
Hi Ard, I don't know how to avoid using ATC if it's an IFR flight - You get your clearance and they then expect you to remain under instructions. I suppose, if you ignore them after takeoff, they will sooner or later cancel off the IFR flight plan and leave you to your own devices! what I normally ...

Re: Flight 03 90 degree turn
yep it is WP12 and make sure not to make the turn too wide. I almost clipped the mountain on the outside of the turn.
another tricky turn is WP31 close to the end, which is a 120 degree or about turn. Also there if your speed is too high the turn can be too wide to fly safely pass the mountains.

Re: W T Flight-01
Good to see that your "Notes Dakota " are still as valuable as they were in the old days. Apparently , I did make the same effort as you to end the flight shorter than the indicated time. Got a hint that I was stretching the performance. Now I have flown 01 again and used settings from the...

Re: Screenshots WT2023-01
Thanks
This plane indeed has a very complete panel, which makes flying easier. The only extra-panel I use as a pop-up is the GPS, that can be made a little smaller and places mid-left as not to obstruct other dials.
