RobertVA Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: 9. "RE: Multiplayer Flight Ideas" 07-31-04, 21:24z  I'm proposeing a glider flight for Aug 8 landing on KSBP runway 7. If the default flight planner is used to generate a plan through the VOR west of the airport and the intersection at the rwy 7 threshold, the GPS will help get on the proper side of the field, where circling and the speed brake can be used to establish a serviceable final. Lets discuss if we want to "just say no" to the "relocate aircraft" popup associated with the flight plan or allow the relocation and slew airborne from a nearby airport. Starting from over Paso Robles at 9,000 ft it took me about 40 minutes to glide to San Luis Obispo with enough altitude for several circles to the west of KSBP before landing. If we say no to the relocation we can fly circles over KSBP before we use the GPS to help line up for landing. I had to be carefull about keeping my nose up to clear the ridge betwen two airports. With a bit of practice it looks like it would be possible to start at 7,500 ft. Robert Near KORF Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
