Manston to LE TOUQUET how long??
 

Just wondering how long in flight time it would take to get from Manston to LE TOUQUET??? Got to finish my PPL first but im looking forward to going :)

If we tell you, you'll miss all the NAV and FP practice. :p

Both are on the CAA 1:500000 you use around Manston.

Holloway - it could comfortably be done in 45 mins in a Warrior.

PS great meeting you earlier!

Ok.... Heres one for you Edward. How long from Manston to this airport about 30 miles North of La Mans??

God knows :rolleyes: - this is the kinda thing you work out on the CRP1 computer I showed you the other day at the club!

Work it out in miles, then assume a cruise of 115kts in a Warrior, and Bob's your budgie :D

UM well go on then :rolleyes: I havent got one yet :)

Tell me how many miles from Manston to Le Mans (can't be arsed to find a map ;)) and I will :D

I just plug it all into Navbox and it tells me. Much easier! Once I've got a route I like the look of, I print it out and draw the lines on my map.

Navbox??? Sorry, im still learning about all this. :)

It's a piece of software used for flight planning. I've not seen it, but have heard it's great.

If I ever get into serious touring (let's just get the licence first ;)) then I might get it, but not before.

Edited because we at pprune can not condone the illegal use of software that is under copyright. I am sure you can understand this stance......... :)

Oh:o I thoght it was a download of software or something. Where can I get it from then??

Thanks :)

Hi there. A quick search wouldhelp you here. I have just done 2, one from the forum and one from MSN.Navbox

whats the difference between the navbox lite and pro?? can I just purchase the lite version?? or shall I invest in the pro??

I suggest you purchase the one with the closest match to your requirements -- I seem to remember the details are on the site.


Will there be a new thread here this afternoon titled:

"How do you use NavBox Software?" ;)

Good idea, I think I shall do that now :) lol

According to my trustee Jeppesen FlightStar VFR software (another product like NavBox).

Manston to Le2K(Paris-Plage - LFAT) is 50.8Nm direct which is about half an hour in an R44 (110 kts).

Manston to Le Mans (Arnage - LFRM) is 208.4Nm direct which is about 2 hours in an R44 (110kts)

Hm, nice one RH...

Now we'll immediately have a thread called: "Should I buy Jepp or NavBox?"

:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Excerlent, Thanks very much for you help :)
