Re: Ok what am I missing?
I am on I10 now. The frustration is only with me; at my own problems. Really having to pay attention to every small detail. That being said, this really is great fun learning, and far more satisfying than VATSIM. I am determined to get it right.

Re: Ok what am I missing?
[/quote]My guess is your clearance was "cleared to BFL, runway 30 departure procedure, then as filed" (if VNY was part of your field route), or, "...runway 30 departure procedure, vectors [first fix], then as filed." Do either of those ring a bell? If not, then it's back to my or...

Re: Ok what am I missing?
Now, I think about it no, I was not. I think that was my mistake. Makes sense to me that if no explicit heading then I fly my flight plan. Is this correct? If so, great, problem solved.

Ok what am I missing?
OK now the frustration level is at explode point. So, here is what happened. I want to learn and not get this wrong again, because it seems that I followed instructions, from my perspective. I think I misunderstood the read back. I was flying from KWHP to KBFL. I took off on runway 30 and flew runwa...

Yes, I think it is time for the panel. The problem I find with clicking on say the Garmin, and opening the 2D version is that you cannot drag the the cursor, it only accepts clicks. Pain in the butt for coms.

Re: One of these days....
The real problem is that I have a use a trackpad for my mouse; due to carpel-tunnel problems. This presents no problem with my Heavy Metals, but in the Piper I like to fly. Carenado in my opinion has not implemented a good system for turning knobs; either quickly or accurately. So, I get behind tryi...

Re: Never again on PE - share your mistakes
Ok, here is a dumb one. Flying into Avalon, I cancelled IFR and proceeded VFR. Changed Frequences to Unicom. Saw the other traffic and proceeded to almost most fly the plane into a mountain trying to communicate with the drones thinking I had the wrong frequency.

Re: Pilot Introductions
Hi my name is Graham Sanders (Handle WagnerTenor). I have been flying online on Vatsim for over 10 year. I finally took the PilotEdge plunge. Glad I did!
