Yesterday Mr. 219WQ (that’s me) got the bright idea to long-haul a beautiful Delta E175 with full payload because he was interested in pushing the limits after recent Vmd testing. Even though Simbrief was screaming “DON’T DO THE FLIGHT,”he ignored and trusted the Infinite flight process. Let’s examine what this challenge seeker did.
Loading up for his flight I see. Looking goo- I mean horrible. Don’t do the flight! You won’t make it.
Seems he’s gotten ready to depart, but departing traffic is holding him up. Good job JFK aircraft.
Dragon was going too fast on takeoff, hitting over 190 knots on rotation. I couldn’t keep up, so I teleported into his aircraft. Not a bad shot tho.
A slow and gentle climb to 37,000 feet. Gotta give him props for that. I managed to sneak into the cockpit since he forgot to lock the door and I got a close up view from a pilot’s perspective. This will probably be the best view I get before this plane runs out of fuel and crashed. I’m going to go back to my seat and sleep. He’s got a long unsuccessful journey ahead of him.
Well that nap was a refresher. Wait! He’s still alive?! He should’ve crashed by now. It seems he went up to 39,000 feet.
What?! He’s over land now? He might actually make it. He’s starting his descent just a bit over 10 minutes out. Right now, he’s utilizing spoilers to descend at -4,300 feet per minute (fpm). Poor passengers.
Well, now he’s slowed down significantly and he’s on final. A few red flags: 160 KIAS in a 10-knot tailwind. Why? I’ll just teleport out the airplane now.
Solid touchdown and he actually stopped. He took the last of the last exits, wow. Guess we’ll see him at the gate them.
Well, he made it. As much as this shouldn’t be possible, he did make it. Delta should be taking notes right now. Thanks for stopping by.
