load for the crew.
Bush Pilot Feature of the Month

Challenge #14 by Ron Jorgensen
Update on the G.A.A.R. 2005
All pilots should send me an email when they
complete the G.A.A.R. so that I can send them an Award Plaque.
The GAAR is winding down, only a few pilots
are still enroute.
Multi-Player Flying
WestcoastATC
has virtually abandoned AOTC. Most
everyone is back to flying on Server 1,2 or 3.
Detailed
instructions for removing AOTC from your computer are located at:
www.westcoastatc.com/prefsetup3.shtml
I printed the
instructions and removed the aotc client without any problems in about 5
minutes. One of our pilots reported that
he lost some gauges when he deleted aotc.
Not sure how that could happen, but be forewarned. If I was doing it after hearing that news, I
would copy everything in Flight Simulator 9/Gauges to a temporary folder first.
It might be a
good idea, to keep serveinfo on your computer.
You may be needing it soon.
Here is a
snapshot of pilots hours logged on WestCoastATC. Hours logged on ATOC are not shown. They will be added to the system some day,
I’m told.
Pilots,
remember to report all of your flights using the “Submit Flight Report” link on
the main Bluegrass Page.
