I'm curious to see if Radar ATCOs' obvious aptitude benefits them for this - I can only do 25 secs!

Very true maine :ok:


I'm stopping now at 64.1seconds as my palms are sweaty, my nerves are shot and my blood pressure is rising.

I'd like to thank you Kirstey for posting that....but I can't.

You've runied my evening and my work tomorrow will be anything but expeditious and orderly.

I'm off to lie down in a very dark room, preferably one without tubes installed.

A bit like being on the Tay sector this afternoon with the military exercise on. :\ Consider this little red square an EZE Jetstream and get it south of Newcastle in one piece.

I first tried co-ordination but Neatishead didn't understand where I was talking about ...... so I went for avoiding action ... phew that was exhausting .... so in the end I just did some random moves left and right and closed my eyes ..... a bit like being on the Tay sector this afternoon with the military exercise on......

Now the Band 5 ATCOs will have fun with this ;)

25.58 secs on 6th attempt and I'm on a laptop with sweaty fingers n' all.

Benefit of being astute enough to maintain my jets clear of Tay traffic.:\

Phew !! 1520 and a few sore heads by hitting the roof. :D



Frogbox when we constantly get co-ordination on the wrong sector and traffic positions like " east of south Scotland" no wonder we don't bother to call to hear such jibberish :{ :{

447miles on my first attempt with the helicoptor. I got abit concerned about the large amount of smoke so I called a Mayday and then crashed into a green cloud...........where's that glue gone?? :uhoh:

point well received. During the Mil Exercise the controller will usually be under a RIS and may not have the brain-space to deal with pressured requests for co-ord whilst dealing with the demands of many FJs. However, the controller should have the savvy to recognise the most ancient of reporting points and therefore pinpoint your traffic.
It is appreciated that you may have RAS traffic and every effort will be made to contact you early, inform you of the exercise, and an attempt made to influence the course of your traffic (in the interests of all airspace users).
Those of us who have had a symbiotic (big word for the day) relationship with yourselves for many years do pull out the stops to aim to make your life easier.
Indeed us old boys try to impart our knowledge amongst the youngsters, so I blame the internet generation.
If you feel you need to discuss this further my PM is always open.

Errr, yeah...symbiotic relationships and ancient reporting points aside, wasn't this a thread about naff Flash games? Thought so. You want helicopters? Then try this (http://www.bbc.co.uk/drama/rockface/game/) for size.

hmmm i guess the traffic from pprune was to much for the game in the first post. They took it down, but luckely i saved it :) If anyone wants it, i'll e-mail it out. Its a small 13kb html file.

Anyway, i figured out why i couldn't get more than 25 sec. I checked the settings and found out that every 100sec there is a speed change. But oddly, it went in 10 sec increments on my computer (maybe you all are running outdated comps? :p). Anyway, a quick fix & suddenly i manage in the 70's seconds on my 'first' try.
