  • NFL Flying Fantasy league 2017 DRAFT SPECIAL- Tue Sept. 5th, 9:00 pm ET



    Greetings pilots!

    Looks like its time for another season of the MsFlights Flying Fantasy Football League!
    There are 10 slots available to any armchair coaches that may be interested. All pilots are welcome to join the league by simply expressing your desire to do so as a reply to this post below.
    The open spots are on a first come-first serve basis, with returning coaches of coarse getting priority.

    Tuesday night we will be taking a simple NFL themed flight while the coaches of the msFlights Flying Fantasy League conduct their 2017 season draft! Everyone is invited to join in this flight, but the coaches will move to a locked room until we have finished all draft business.

    This flight is intended to be flown in the OV-10 Bronco which you can get from the msFlights vault here: http://msflights.net/forum/showthrea...-OV-10A-Bronco

    Check out these handy posts from our good friend Storm about installing an autopilot into the Bronco: http://msflights.net/forum/showthrea...ll=1#post19084

    Our flight takes us past several NFL stadiums (past and present) that are represented in default FSX. We will be flying from Chicago to Canton Ohio, with a few diversions along the way, but we will NOT land until we get all the way to Canton. That's right, just pop in the flight plan .PLN file that is supplied below, set your auto-pilot, and sit back & enjoy this sight-seeing flight.

    This flight will take place in SimLink. See here for details:

        Pursuant to an off-season plea deal with the Nevada Gaming Commission and Clark County, the terms of which remain sealed, The Sin City Raiders partnership has assumed controlling interest in the former Las Vegas Deuce. This new management (now FELONY FREE !) will field a competently staffed well managed legally financed team in the 2017-18 Flying Fantasy Football League.






        Thank you again to the League office and the returning owners for the amicable settlement of that civil suit.
        Respects, Bob ...

          Due to technical difficulties, the Buffalo Williams are is REBUILDING mode. My main hard drive is caput! I have ordered a new hard drive and have to REBUILD all my software. I do have a full backup of FX and all related items on an external HD along with much more (all purchased software). I expect to be back hopefully by September 4th or so. My machine is sevn years old and I toyed with the idea of getting a completely new one. I decided to rebuild this one, and look into when I will need to replace this computer completely.

          So count me in! I will use my wife's laptop if push comes to shove, i.e., my wife pushes me to "shove off".

              Kind of following on Razor's footsteps. I am very busy this semester and trying to balance my time out with my new school. 18 Credit hours (or 6 classes plus Flight) does not give me much extra time. I will also may be juggling a couple extra curricular activities at school depending on how they go. Supposedly they are recommended to do for future employment. Whatever the case, one of them sounds promising and I may give it a go. It is a precision flying team including dropping objects from aircraft and other things. I heard you can get some really cheap flight time doing it as well, so maybe it will be worth it. It has been a little stressful and interesting at my new school. New ways of doing things and in true aviation tradition, lots of complex things to learn. Currently doing ground school for instrument and half of commercial. The other half is next semester. I should have my instrument(I believe) around Christmas time hopefully. Then not too long after commercial. I still look at forum threads from time to time and check the site. PM me if you want to chat.
              In summary, I don't mind being in the football league, don't expect much or any movement. I will try to attend, but right now it is not looking so hot. I also need to install P3D again because I kinda messed something up and didn't want to figure out what I did wrong(along with simlink).
              Back to homework, hope the update was entertaining.

                  Some points for pilots this evening:
                  • The ESPN draft uses Flash by default. However if, like me, you have removed Flash from your system for security reasons, or you have a system that will not host Flash anyway, ESPN say they provide a "Lite Draft", which is linked on both the League Office and Clubhouse pages when the league is in draft mode. Apparently to select a player when using the Lite Draft version, you click on the player you wish to draft and then select "Draft" when you are on the clock - though I have not tested this.
                  • You may wish to customize your Pre-Draft Player Rankings and/or your Autopick Strategy beforehand, in case either your internet connection goes down during the draft or you have problems with Lite Draft. The links to these are in your team's clubhouse, to the right of your team's logo, though be assured that the defaults are pretty good anyway.
                  • If you don't have it, I've added an OV10_Football.vmr vPilot model matching file at the end of the reminder for this event in our Discord server's #group-flight-info channel.
