Doh! I'd step up but I'm booked solid thru the weekend with family stuff. Worse comes to worse we'll all meet at EGOD at Flight Time for a Free Swim!

Hi everybody,

I have an idea and a track to "revisit Crete". Is there a chance for Oly to retrieve orthos in the remaining time? The FG original scenery isn`t very much like Crete. GPX would be:

Any chance to deal with it?

Maybe take that new C130. Looks amazing, haven’t tried it out yet though.

Let's meet at LGSA in the new C-130 and we can enact an idea Stuart had.

I won't put it in the terms he did but we can try some multiple air to air refuelling activities.

I am 100% wanting to turn up, hopefully I make it. See you all there.

You should know better than to pay attention to my random ideas.

Yummidy, Yum, Yum. But in trying to test the route, the C-130 game crashes every time the Route manager loads the file.

Thanks Oly for the Orthos, looks amazing, just like Crete should look like. Tried the C-130 in the region, works fine. Try to dive the giant bird into the Samaria Gorge ...

Air to air refuelling? Which aircraft are refuelable?

CU tomorrow
