Join Flight1 for a FREE talk on “The Basics of Flying IFR” in the virtual world of Second Life with a real-world airline pilot! Flight1 are pleased to announce the first in a series of educational talks aimed at the simmer who wants to fly as real as it gets. The guest speaker is "Tricky Negulesco" as he is known in Second Life, who is also a Real-World Airline Pilot.
Do you fly using mark 1 eyeball or rely on the GPS? Learn to do things as the professionals do, using the aircraft’s instruments. This talk will cover everything you need to know to get you from A to B in Microsoft Flight Simulator... Tracking ADF, DME, ILS and VOR radials, ILS Approaches, Radio Telephony, reading and interpreting Airway Charts and Approach Plates and much more.
This is the first in a series of talks aimed at the simmer who wants to fly as real as it gets and there will be time for questions and answers at the end to clear up that query you always wanted to know the answer to! The date and time for your diary is Sunday, 5 August 2007. 1PM GMT (5AM PDT). The event will be repeated later the same day to fit in with other time zones at 5PM GMT (9AM PDT) This is unique event to attend for pilots both real and simulation orientated - and with it being hosted within Second Life means it’s as good as being there in person! Complete details can be found on the Flight1 website.
