HI 4608 4.1 hours

HI 4609 3.9 hours

HI 4612 3.3 hours

HI 4613 3.7 hours, 15 hours, Using RealWeather, it makes a big difference in time and flying conditions. Hong Kong in the rain can be quite difficult, especially at final approach.

One flight, lost deicing equipment. Temps in humid conditions were high enough to not require usage. , Any idea for locations on internet for checklists for the various aircraft used here? Might help the realism and good practice for procedures. I saw one page four years ago on Prodigy before leaving for Japan for two years. Now that I am no longer with that organization, don't have the foggiest idea where to look.

HI 50 Honolulu-Hooleua ATR 17min

HI 51 Hooleua-Honolulu ATR 27min nice flights with brand-new ATR42-300

HI 80 Honolulu Lihue A320 24min

HI 81 Lihue Honolulu A320 21min rainstorm over Lihue

HI 110 Honolulu Kahului Hilo B757 48min instrument failure after take-off. Vectored to Bellows in the clouds for an emergency landing. Scary landing between the runways. Started again from Honolulu and completed the flight.

HI 111 Hilo Kahului Honolulu B757 59min Executed missed approach at Kahului for very bad weather.

HI 634 San Francisco sacramento A320 21min did anybody see Sacramentoís runways? They donít show up!

HI 609 Miami Key West ATR 33í nice flight between sea and land

HI 4008 Miami Nassau B737 30í

HI 4009 Nassau Miami B737 31í two short flights to have a look at USAí east cost

HI 4509 Milan Paris London A310 1h30min very fine IFR flight, with real enroute and approach charts. Low ceiling, 1300ft and low visibility 3 miles. Great satisfaction in finding the arrival runway exactly where it should be at the very last moment! This is X-Plane at itís best for IFR.

Business ATR-flight. A group of physicians meetting in Geneva asked for a cross-country trip around the Alps. I managed a flight with our brand-new, freshly coloured ATR to Aosta LIMW Locarno LSZL Bolzano LIPB Innsbruck LOWI and Munich EDDM. Very fine VFR flight across alpine valleys, final IFR approach to EDDM with Stephanís fine charts. I can confirm that the scenery for X-Plane 4 is first-class. Total time: 2 hours 25 minutes.

, 9 hours 6 minutes

Flight check for new HI planes: A 310 A320 A340 ATR-42 B737 B747 B757 B767 B777 King-Air MD-11 MD-82 Saab-2000. 15/20 minutes each flight, 3 hours 30 min. total time. Test flight as follows: check ATIS, tune and ID local navaids, take-off, retract gear and flaps, climb to 3.000ft, level, turn 180 degrees left or right, fly for 10-20NM, turn 180 degrees again, ILS or VOR approach, land. Flight tests have been conducted at Munich EDDM, Milan Malpensa LIMC, Lampedusa LICD (VOR apporach) for fine weather and swimming after flying!

3h 30 min, B767 didn't reiceive local navaids at Munich EDDM. it work again after shut-off and starting again (I read that this is done also on the Space Shuttle!), Submit

HI02 38min

HI 84 31min

HI85 33min, 2:16, On Flight HI84 I was using the new A310 and was too high on the glide as the power settings were kind of new to the crew. Executed GA.

Installed ATC Voice (SDK4.0) a little strange but you can actually modify .acf and ID so that they call "Hawaiian xy". Fun., Which Pedals did you buy?

Pro Pedals, I¥m going to buy them as well....,
