when not busten butt workin like everyone else, I relax by saving the world with FS9 and FSp (The two are like left and right, body and soul as far
as I am concerned), When are the others in the payware community of FS going to clue up and offer programs this good?!?!
Anyway, my latest fun is: I started a Co. called Trans International Airlines, I even wrote a GOM (General Ops Manual) for operations and such. My
co. consists of TIA and 3 DBA's called: TIA Coastal Air, TIA training facility, TIA maint. and flight testing. The training center is where the
pilots gather experience and then transfer to TIA airlines. The maint/test center operates all aircraft on pathfinder missions, freeflights, fun
flights etc, BUT all! ac are operated as a FSp flight. The GOM contains a simplified version FS friendly but still has enough stuff to keep
everything inline and fun. for example, I have a aircraft/pilot certification process that I follow and keep logged in this GOM.
Currently, I have listed in the GOM as having co. aircraft consisting of 10 different aircraft ranging from a 747-200 to a DHC-2 Beaver. But the only
aircraft in operation is a B-247D. As the company gets bigger and better, I will be able to have some of the other ac cert.
Right now, since the company is new, we are not operating sched/nonsched service yet. The 247 is in PAJN Alaska on a 'Pathfinder' mission where a
select crew is scoping for airports and routes to be used for the start of operations. Yesterday I checked out in the Beaver wheeled, float, ski and
tundra models, Having fun in PAJN, Got to fly a Foxbat, the F-86 and a Chinook. Havi' too much fun! Gotta get to work! So, so far all flights are
being operated under TIA m&ft. We do 'Ghostrider' flights in and out of classified Government bases and sites. These are fun. The GOM is a record
of all the goings on during these pathfinder missions. Kinda like a co history diary. Good fun. Maybe I will publish this GOM as a source of info
and good reading. Maybe this format (GOM) can be useful to others?
The aircraft cert. program is inherent really. You know how when you download a new plane you got to fly it to see if everything is working right,
you got all the right panel gages and such? Well, I made this into 'C checks' C-1 through C-4. C-1 is a ground check: Paint, contact points, the
smoke system works, all that stuff. C-2 is a basic flight test: make sure the plane flies (I downloaded and tried to fly a Posky 747-sp and this
thing won't fly! I even slewed it in the air, gave it 200 knots and it won't fly! Any ideas? I am going to try and transfer lift scaling info to its
ac.cfg file from another 747. See if that works. C-3 is instrument procedures. C-4 is Federal checkride and route/pax/cargo cert. (Make sure FSp
accepts it with payload model and such.
All is just too much fun!!!
Group hug for the FSp team!!!!!!!!!

Just look up and level the wings once in a while
