We had another good flight last night with 6-ships and all landed safely. We still have some growing pains, but we are getting by those. Our top priority is getting the Package off on time in a reasonable time. That is requiring training/tutorials of some basics, which appears to be working. Some simple standards will be helpful, that all pilots can do on their own before and after GUI. Off the top of my head and feel free to change/add/delete.
I'll be printing this out, cause I'm too dang Geezerish to remember it all. Also, My series of TE's are based out of Mandumi, so I will be printing out the Approach Plate. That way there is no guessing. Enjoy
