Rules for the FSFlyingSchool (Hereafter known as FSFS) Caribbean Tour 100.

1) Anyone using FS9 or FSX, and full versions of FSFS classic or FSFS 2009 can enter.

2) For this tour, pick 1 or 2 planes from the FSFS hanger and fly the entire tour in those planes. You can fly the entire tour with one plane, or a combination of two planes. For instance, you can choose a prop for smaller fields, and a jet for the longer hauls. It’s up to you.

3) Competition starts on June 1, 2009 and all 100 flights must be done on August 31, 2009.

4) You decide when you want to fly the legs within the above mentioned timeframe.
You can choose real weather, calm weather or nasty weather conditions – risk / reward system.
It’s all up to your piloting skills. Any time of day you like, night, day whatever.

5) When you have completed one leg, you must submit your score to the web.
(So we can see each other scores)

6) You must make a posting of the flight in the Caribbean Tour forum, stating the following:
Name (goes with the posting), date of flying (so we can track the score on the high score list)
and the scores (flight- and landing scores). Please use a scoring template similar to the one used on the Hawaiian Tour.

7) You can use autopilot if you want, (FSFS 2009 only) See FSFS Manual to avoid score-cut.

8) You are on the FSFS Pilot Code of Ethics system. You are expected to make the flight one time
only and cannot re-fly the leg because you perhaps got a bad score. It is all for fun or at least
bragging rights!

9) You are welcome to take in-flight screenshots and post those with the posting mentioned in rule 6.

10) When all competitors have finished all 100 flights (or on July 31st) we will compare scores and name
a winner of the Caribbean Tour 100. The winner will have the right to – politely – mock the other
competitors for a period of seven days!

Notes:

The airports chosen for this tour range from very short runways to long runways. This may come into play as to the airplane(s) you choose. It was the idea that this tour would utilize different airplanes and enjoy the scenery of Caribbean, but it is all up to the pilot to choose their favorite airplane. Trying to stop a Learjet on 2100 feet of runway might be fun for your passengers! Pick wisely.

I CANNOT stress this enough. Make sure you understand Non-ILS landings and ILS Landings. A good majority of these airports are Non-ILS runways, so make sure to make your own landing Non-ILS landing files or hit the edges of the runway by default. Highly recommended to make your on Non-ILS files that way you can pick your spot on the runway to aim for it. Scoring is effected when you miss your landing marks and Mr. Smith and company are grading you.


Any questions, don’t hesitate to ask. Good luck and Happy Flying.
