This may be useful to some:
The turn to 201deg above Humuula is at intersection with KOA (112.1 MHz) R80.
The turn to 42 deg above Kilauea Military Camp is at intersection with ITO (116.9 MHz) R210.
The destination airport at Mountain View is near intersection of ITO R196 and MUE (113.3 MHz) R118, although I have doubts if MUE could be received at this location in real life, due to terrain. Luckily, the 'other' IFR (I follow roads) works nicely for this leg.

So would it bother you if I showed up flying Helijah's L-19? I've grown fond of this old crate, and I like tail draggers.


do you have a download link? I can't find it in the default hangar or the wiki :?
or is it the one labeled as "by Emmanuel BARANGER"

I believe that Helijah's personal repo version has been worked on the most recently. There's a May, 2021 date associated with the file. My French is not great but seems to have had an attempt at it's cockpits shadow shaders done. My personal version has my own Yasim tweaks which should not effect online operations.

Can we please keep everything that is not an information post in this thread ? There are now already three posts on the info thread in this week that don't belong there …

I could only have a brief look at the multiplayer map, but apparently we had an excellent turnout!

Any ideas on the list for next week?

What about a small airfield and a bit of aerobatics in the CAP 10C?

Yay, that sounds great ! :) If we settle on that I'd give the CAP 10C some love and tune the smoke effect so that the smoke trail is longer, and maybe add a color selector so that we can make smoke in different colors.

I'd suggest we use the Cap10B - the C variant is a bit broken (most of the instruments have a texture bug and thus are unusable). For the airport, how about EGEW ? It has the shortest commercially used runway on the world, it's by the seaside, got a hard and two soft runways … so plenty of possibilities ! :wink:
