NEW TARGET SCORES

 

As you have probably discovered when doing a quick maths check on the effect of the Target Scores(TS) I published against your current overall scores, a TS of 100 neither advantages nor disadvantages the Overall Score. While a TS of >100 reduces the overall score & <100 increases the overall score. Eg C172 uses could take -2.00 hit.

 

As all participants are flying single engined light a/c I did not consider the TS system fare in this particular instance. The intention of the TS was to even out inflated high score when larger a/c were used in a tour. This is not the case in the Sweet & Sour Tour. Were there a greater mix of a/c then the TS system would be applicable.

 

Following discussion with the author/originator of the “Tour Rules” and the Target Score system (Ole) I have decided to issue a Target Score of 100 to ALL aviators so long as they continue to fly single engined light a/c in current use.

 

Therefore your final Overall Score is your final score.

 

Any objectors to this decision can discuss it with Kev at the back of the dunny shed tomorrow morning after breakfast

Resist all you want, or dont. But as Bruce said, if you fly anything but a single engine small plane, the target score system WILL take effect, and the target score for the 747 is - 134,4, so an average of 134,4 will give you 100 as final score. so everything below that will cause you to hit the dumps.

And this is the official target score for the 747 based on all the scores on the highscorelist.

More targetscores will follow, BUT the target score for the single engine small planes for this tour is still 100!

Boy you are good! I will make you a take-it-or-leave-it offer on that matter. IF you fly on one engine in a 747, I will personal kick Bruce until he accepts to carve off three point from the target score. (One for each engine you leave off)

But hey - you might get Smith to give you a lot of additional points if flying on one engine, so all in all, you might be able to gain something there.

Let's see... no passengers, crew of two, Smitty looks to be 170 lbs, we'd only need 5-10% fuel -- rough guess, that's only 450K lbs.  I'm sure that grass strip can manage....

If I can get 'er into the air, I can put her back down.  (Hopefully in one piece.)

This could lead to a whole new series of callouts for the instructors when entering takeoff mode:

  • "You've got to be kidding."
  • "Lemme out of here." [Sound of door slamming]
  • "ARE YOU INSANE?!?"

Did you ever catch the video of a South African Airways 747 doing a display at Duxford a few years ago?

If I had not persanally seen it I would not have believed it. He did everything except loop & barrel roll. Incredibly he turn a full 360 very nearly within the confines of the airfield  -- But don't think he tried 1 engine.

To the families, residents, and visitors of the housing complexes at the end of runway 14, Innisfail Field.

I'm sorry.  I'm so, so sorry.

Today must have seemed to you like a bad scene from the movie, Groundhog Day.  There you were sitting on your veranda... doing your homework...  washing your automobile...  carrying on with your lives...  when suddenly the sound of a 747 jumbo jet - albeit one with a single engine - filled the aether coming closer, closer, closer...  growing louder, straining, urgent, deafening.  Until your lives were most dreadfully impacted.

And then it happened again.  And again.  And again.  Some of you must have thought the terror would never end.

Sure, the winds changed direction at times - gusting up the runway, down the runway, and sometimes there was no wind at all.  Those of you who watched, transfixed as the lumbering horror approached, noticed those little flappy things on the back of the wings were sometimes more flappier than others.  Sometimes there were no flappy things at all.

None of it made any difference whatsoever.  Reset.  Repeat.  Boom.

I, sitting in the command seat every time, would like for you to know that I share your pain.  ("Share," "Caused" - trifling legal differences to be sure that are now behind us.)  There were times when I thought I saw a glimpse of someone's face, silently mouthing the words, "Oh no, not again" just as every one of us experienced that terrible silence again.

And there are those who would argue, "You could have lifted off if you had only used two engines, you dolt."  True though that is, two engines simply weren't part of The Plan.  You see, single means "one."

That's your lesson for today.  (Single means "one.")   Rest assured; your long, twilight nightmare is over.  Team Fenric is bound for Cairns.
