Update: So we have departed about 1 hour ago and still has roughly 5-6 hours of flight time. If someone can be an ATC at LOWW please feel free to do so :)

In total 6 or7hrs for ENBR to LOWW? That should not take more than 2.5hrs maybe 3 if you have headwind :shock:

Exactly my thoughts... are you sure you did not make a mistake in the flightplan?

what kind of compression are you using to get all those characters into the 7 character field ;)

it is kind of funny to look at the MP stuff, at times, and see several craft flying with too long callsigns... callsigns that have been chopped off so it looks like all of those craft are using the same callsign...

wow... 6 to 7 hours to fly 830nm? 830nm/6hr=138kts... if i did my math right, that's pretty slow for an airbus...
830nm/250kts=3.32hr

the above might be straight line distance... i just generated a flight plan at onlineflightplanner.org and it is showing 865nm... either way, the flight time is just over three hours...
"You get more air close to the ground," said Angalo. "I read that in a book. You get lots of air low down, and not much when you go up."
"Why not?" said Gurder.
"Dunno. It's frightened of heights, I guess."
