Mark,

In the past in the real world I would fly N.Y. to Cairo which took 12 to 14 hours. Now with FSX I take off from N.Y. to Cairo and when I get to cruise altitude I put it on the autopilot in LNAV and go to bed.

Next morning after crew rest and breakfast I get back in the cockpit and get ready for the descent.  ;D

Hey, that is the way it really works!   :P




As for the PAPI ( Precision Approach Path Indicator )

For a non jumbo - 2 RED 2 WHITE, for a jumbo, 1 RED 3 WHITE is what you shoot for.

Or the VASI ( Visual Approach Slope Indicator )

VASI, it's RED over WHITE for non jumbo, and PINK over WHITE for the big boys.
