At 2100z I will be staging out of RAF Brize Norton (EGVN) and going on to refuelling station between EGHH (Bournemouth) and EGKL (Deanland) at FL140 @ 260 kts. in the A330 MRTT (RAF Voyager).Yes ok I will be using a A330 in generic livery!
If you want to practice your skills as a fighter pilot come and practice being refuelled from me, I will be on station from aprox 2115z until 2145z, flying a racetrack between EGHH and EGKL.
PROCEDURES
*If waiting to refuel then wait in lose echelon to Port (Left) at about 500ft higher then next aircraft. When cleared to refuel then move down a place in the queue until you are No1.
*No1 to join when XOM14 is free, do not join on a turn.
*Refuelling Operation takes 60s, be directly astern
*Once refuelled break off by slowing down to 250kts, drop by 500ft and then break away to Starboard (Right).
I’m flying in the London region, looks like the server is still playing up because the map isn’t showing other aircraft and a few names pop up whilst I’m flying then disappearing just as quick
