Hi  Flight Simmers,

Welcome to Round Robin no 3.
This is a short one, with Microsoft Scenery (I didn't want
them feeling left out !!!!!). But it is still a lot of fun, 
and there is a surprise in it.

If you did RR1 or 2, skip the next paragraph, jump right in, and
have fun.

For those who are new to this, Round Robins are published
with the intent of having  MS Flight-Simmers fly, look at the
scenery, and do some approaches at different airports all
over the world.
In the message,  you will be getting info like:  airport departure and
runway number , VOR'S and ADF's en route, one or two middle
airport destination for VFR or INST approach, and back to your 
point of departure (round robin) for and  INST or VFR approach,
along with ILS and LOM freqs, minimums, procedures etc .....
You will also get info on the scenery needed to complete the
flight and  where to get it (at the ftp.iup.edu, where else?). Also
who created the scenery (for non-commercial) and a little
background on the geography of the area.

May  I also suggest, that you read the route a couple of times before
starting out,  so that  you'll have your flight plan fairly clear in
your mind.

ROUND ROBIN #3  May 95

SCENERY: MICROSOFT FS5.0 DEFAULT

BEGIN:
1.... Select Port Angeles under the Seatle scenery. DAY VFR
Conditions for the first leg.
Tune in Paine VOR  110.60 on Nav2. and RITTS ADF freq 396. 
T/O  RWY 08. Right climbing to 10000  turn to HDG 085.

25 miles from Paine VOR, start descend to 3300. Dial in
Paine field  ATIS 128.65, and localizer 109.3 on NAV1.
Watch for Balloon at 3000, straight ahead about 12 miles from
the Paine VOR (that is the surprise).
At 12 nm from the VOR, (or after you found the balloon)
turn left to HDG  340. Stay on this HDG and maintain 3300
until you are 14 nm from the localizer on your NAV 1. 
Turn right and HOME the RITTS ADF(LOM) to intercept the localizer
for an ILS to RWY 16 (actual hdg 159 mag) elevation 606.
LAND.

SET CLOCK to 2018.

2........ Touch and go. T/O,  Right climbing  to 6500 HDG 180. 
Tune in and track the  Olympia VOR 113.4.

You will be passing to the west of Seatle and Tacoma, with the
city lights and the Space Needle visible. At 32nm from Olympia
you will see the Tacoma Narrows bridge and the Tacoma 
airport to your left.
17nm from the Olympia VOR, descent to 4300.
9nm from the VOR, you now have the airport visual. Turn right

Tune in MASON ADF freq 348 and Home the needle.

DO NOT DESCEND  until over the ELWHA ADF. ( ELWHA  ADF

Once over the ELWHA ADF, you should have the Airport
visual.
Visual approach to RWY 08  elevation 288.

LAND
WELCOME HOME.

NOTES:

1. The clock is set after landing Paine so that you  will be 
at dusk/dark  going by Seatle., and returning to Port
Angeles at dark. It is meant to let you experience the descent
over water, turning and doing an ADF approach  at night, relying
on your artificial horizon and instruments.  If you want to put in
clouds under 10000 and above 15000, you'll even get a better
effect.

2....I flew the DC9 on this trip..
3.... For the experienced flyers, please be patient thru all of the
        explanations, directions and extras. I direct this at newcomers
         to the  flying world. I must stick to plain language.
4.... Thanks to Chris for test flying the scenario for me.
