  • Landing Competition

    Welcome

    Landing competition at TNCM ( With NO Add on )

    Planes are Big airliners like the 737 or the 747

    Time is 11PM UNITED KINGDOM time and Finishes at 12PM

    I need 2 judges on the night.

    How it will work

    1. You will spawn at a gate as normal and taxi straight to the holding point of the runway and all line up

    2. I will be in the Tower at TNCM giving take off and landing clearance making sure we have landing coming in.

    3. The judges will write down the call signs of the landing aircraft and mark out of 10

    4. Once you land taxi back and wait at holding point of the runway

    5. Listen to Tower so we know who is landing and such as

    6. TEAMSPEAK 3 FOR TOWER COMMUNICATION ON THE TOWER SECTION.

    7. Any thing i have missed contact me and any thing that whats changing let me know.

    See you tomorrow ( MONDAY ) Night:calm::calm:

    Each week we will have a different selection of planes and maybe airport.

    Judges will judge on : Stopping distance
    Smoothest touch down ALL MARKED OUT OF 10
    Less bounces
    Then a overall rating out of 10

    Subjective "That looks nice"?

      why does it have to be at TNCM, where is your originality?

      And also wouldn't it be cool to have a number of different category's, Single Engine, light multi-engine, short hall, long hall jets.

      for me, I would have to say I would be really a fan of bring a single engine category.

      also, your times need to updated,
      Eastern would be 3-5PM
      Pacific would be 12-3
      that being said hosting it at that time might not yield a large crowd, seeing that we have a large number of western hemisphere (North America) members and that is kind of middle of the work/school day for us.

                Just wondering how the landing is judged, as the only tools I know that record landing rate are kACARS and FSPassengers. That being said unless you have every single payware and freeware aircraft out there you will see substitutions that could affect results, not to mention network lag/ghosting issues.
                "Remember, when in doubt hold on to your altitude, no one has ever collided with the sky"

                "Speed is life, Altitude is life insurance"

                "Respect the ground, for during the 100 or so years that man has been flying things made of metal going hundreds of miles per hour, and the ground going zero miles per hour, the ground has yet to lose."

                  I noticed Ross D just joined this month, so maybe he's still learning those parameters.
