The fifth flight is an previously not planned one. It takes us to the 2nd airport of the Teneriffe island. Its a very short hop and therefore our shortest.
Again, Chris is leading this leg today.
Here you can view the flight. It is mixed realtime and timelapse.

The fourth flight from the tour is now available. It is a rather short flight today, from La Palma to Teneriffa South. In the map you can still see Teneriffe North, I made a small modification there. The next leg with take us from South to North, so we will continue from there to Gibraltar.
Chris is leading this flight today in FL110 over to the nice island Teneriffa.
Here you can view the flight. It is mixed realtime (Engine Start, Takeoff) and timelapse (the other flight phases).

And another Status Update ready for you.
It contains the following topics:
Selcal Function
Prosim v2.0 upgrade
COM2 Module
Weather Radar Module
During the release of ProSimv2 I also noticed the possibility of a weather radar test.
My switch from the radar was not working correctly, so I thought it is defect. Therefore I have disassembled the whole module and tested all switches. I found a failure in the cabling which I made many years ago.
I took the opportunity to correct this and install 2 new potentiometers for the Gain control. I only connected one side, the left side, as current ProSim only supports one weather radar. There is information
Now with Prosim 2.0 its possible to assign a SELCAL function.
So, once a controller send you on VATSIM a SELCAL call, you will hear a) a general SELCAL tone in the cockpit and b) a light will be on to attract more attention
You can reset it when you push the button.
This is a nice addition on transatlantic flights 🙂
This is the final part of our 2 pilots operation back in December 2017.
The final short leg will take us from Frankfurt to Bremen.
Enjoy!
It took also some years, but I have found now a second hand Opencockpits COM2 device with white digits.
I have it built in already into the pedestal and configure it into my SIOC script and Prosim. It’s working like it should.
Now I am able to hear to the ATIS when connected to the primary frequency.
