![]() Sometimes switching the Graphics settings for “generic” models to on/off restores the details. MSFS patch 1.8.3.0 introduced some bug which hides details on nameplates randomly. This applies on all mods, not this one in particular. Known issuesĪfter a patch for MSFS, the sim not immediately loads the Community folder, so one or more restarts are required. A restart of MSFS is required to see the effect. Place the folder of one(!) desired variant of the nameplates in your “Community” folder.

I use this, GitHub - clompsy/msfs_nameplates: Nameplates mods for MSFS 2020 It has a top speed around 170mph, and can sustain it in a good thermal in level flight, or even a slight climb rate in a strong thermal. It has flaps, which you can configure for maximum lift, or set negative degrees of flaps and maximize for speed. For every foot it sinks, it can travel 50. The DG-808 has a glide ratio over 50 to 1. The sim will have native glider support and thermals in SU11.įorgot to mention. The airport (SPUA) is out of service and really just a dirt field. You Should catch any updraft possible now, since the airport itself is on another high plateau with a nasty downdraft. we need to climb this.īehind the plateau is enough updraft, so don’t be scared. So don’t exit the canyon too low.Īs soon as you’re at Hacienda Peru, where you’ll see some green farming fields, you can see a 10,000 feet high plateau in the distance. You’ll have to gain some 5000 feet again. As the next Airport is not around the corner, and substantially higher than the canyon exit. In the end you’ll wish you hadn’t flown too low inside the canyon. ![]() you cant do anything wrong really, beside being too high for the task waypoints. As it runs straight into the valley and than joins the “Rio Majes” river, which will be our guide.įor the next 6 waypoints this flight is a blast. When you cross the mountain you’ll see a small creek you can follow. there should be more than enough lift, and once you made it over the top you’ll be rewarded with an easy and fast flightplan (although not for too long) shortly after we’ll reach a waypoint called “hill climb”, the name should be safe explanatory.ĭon’t lose patience though. luckily the mountain ridge at the west of the airport provides good lift while we have southerly wind, before we start the task. Thats why we start the flight with a rather hard part where we need to gain a lot of height. 19.000 feet, in order to reach the canyon. now this is quite high, but not near enough to cross the mountain ridge at ca. We start at the airport “Orcopampa” (SPOR) at 12600 feet. There is one problem the airports are not very near, and also not really easy accessible. Its Ridges are up to 10,000 feet high, why this canyon is the deepest in the world. This plan takes us to the famous Colca canyon in Peru. Task rating: Easy if you stay at maximum height, a slog if you get low…Not easy! Task distance: 189Km, about 220Km launch to land Start from: Orcopampa (SPOR) Peru elevation 12,600 feet!įinish: SPUA, a deserted airfield on a high plateau Weather: Scattered cloud, Southerly wind increasing with altitudeĪircraft: 18m glider. Sim time: 11:00 + local minutes when you spawn in or 10:+local if before 21:00Z Link to this Saturday’s Got Friends glider group flight: Discord Invite link to GotGravel discord: Discord They provide flight plans and weather presets too. GotGravel / GotFriends also hosts regular gliding events on the West USA server. If they wish to communicate they can install Discord on a mobile or tablet, if not, that’s cool too. They just have to select the West Europe server and spawn at the correct airport, at the correct time. Xbox users have access to the Got Friends Discus 2c in the Marketplace, so yes is the answer.
