📌The Sands Of Morocco - Gunner Downunder's Challenging Flights


Welcome to the 88th flight event across the GUNNER DOWNUNDER series. This challenging event will be conducted in MOROCCO , and is again guaranteed to give you more of the unique and challenging flight experience that you have come to expect from Gunpilot’s flight events.

As usual, challenges galore in putting our Caravan down in some inhospitable locations. While it can get very hot in summer, at this time of the year its a pleasant mid 20’s celcius so no probs with overheating.

Where: Morocco, Africa

Flight Duration: Approx 3hrs (depending on numbers attending)

Aircraft: Cessna Grand Caravan - if you have a different favorite aircraft then leave it in the hangar for this event (as always, as flight planned around Caravan performance)

RECOMMENDATIONS
Cessna Caravan as all landing and other challenges built into flight are
tailored for this aircraft specifically

Turn Damage mode off as you will most likely suffer at least hard
landings if not full on crashes

Bring plenty of Duc Tape for running repairs

Crash Helmets are optional, Prayers are advisable

Embrace “SLEW” as it will be your friend by the end of the flight

Practicing to make Caravan landing approaches at IAS of between 40-50knts max will see you nailing difficult landings with ease and precision.

If you are new to these Gunner Downunder Challenging Flights, ensure you download the Caravan mod which can be found in the #Add-ons-and-downloads channel (mod is pinned to the top RHS of this channels screen) in Gunpilot’s Server. Download and extract into your Community folder and you will have the real life SUPPER 900 kit that is installed by Texas Turbine Coversions in the USA. Improved performance both in the air and on the ground.

Make it easy on yourself to navigate around the route and accurately pinpoint the exact landing areas by downloading and using the free “LittleNavMap” s/w you can get on the web - you will never open the standard sim VFR Map again once you have tried this fantastic app that integrates seamlessly with MSFS2020.

From time to time in Gunpilot’s flights there will be music tracks played. By right clicking on the MEE6 nametag in the Comms Radio section of the server you can adjust music volume to your liking.

Is this the correct time Gunny? Won’t you be sleeping?

I am hoping to get up on time as I had a few tequilas,beers and oysters tonight. I have not joint Gunnie’s flight for a few months now because of time difference but I’ll do my best tomorrow. Danny from Perth ( I do not know how else to discribe myself) :slight_smile:

Ahhh…thanks Willem…lookslike a slip of the finger…all correct in text and in my server, just the FS header wrong - now fixed
