FlightNight Nov. 9th - GA Aircraft Tour of Italian and Swiss Alps!
We'll meet at 8 pm London Time at ICAO: LIPI - Rivolto airport in Italy. Please bring the GA aircraft of your choice from the FGUK Hangars that can attain/maintain 13,000' and a cruise of 140 - 150 KIAS for an hours duration. We will depart to and overfly LIPA, LIPB, and land at LSZS - St Moritz/Samedan as our midway refresh and refuel point.
After refresh and refuel we will again depart to and overfly LSZA, LSZD, LSPM, LSML, LSZL, and land at LSZA - Lugano Airport as our final destination.
Fabulous alpine scenery and some pretty cool airports as well . So, be there or be....absent.

I'm still thinking about what to bring, what's everyone else bringing.
What's the climb rate and speed in climb going to be?

With my new windoze rig set-up (2020.3.19 on Win11 Pro) I can't get any FGUK GA aircraft to even start up. They just stick at 60 rpm and won't go any faster. Unless you force the mixture to rich - which then goes back to zero and the engine stops. Seems the same for any YASim piston aircraft (ie: not just FGUK GA).
We'll be looking for climb rates of 900FPM and climb speed of 130 - 150 KIAS. Warty, bring what you can get to work and we'll deal with it.
