Virtual Airlines / Question
« on: March 08, 2015, 01:24:55 AM »
Just out of curiousity -

I have done some research on Google and I have not been able to locate an FSX PMDG Boeing 737-300 livery for Southwest Airlines with Winglets. I have the non-winglet version; however, Southwest has winglets on all of their 733's now.

Additionally, I have not been able to find the new livery for the PMDG Boeing 737-800...

If anybody has either or has a good resource for one of these, I'd sincerely appreciate it!

I was curious what people out there thought about a Virtual Control system that would let you see your sim people, but offered everything such as training and voice servers as well as ARTCC's.

I want to know how good of an idea it is

The Control Room Floor / Houston Holding Points
« on: June 20, 2010, 01:10:00 PM »
Hello all,

I am a Houston S1 and i have been told something my several people that i want to know what you think about and what was the ups and downs of the holding points. I have just memorized them 5 days ago and now they are being removed, for better flow.

The Holding Points Are as Follows:

HOLDING POINT ONE (1): FACING WESTBOUND ON TAXI-WAY ROMEO-ALPHA IN-LINE WITH TAXI-WAY WHISKEY-GULF HOLDING SHORT OF TAXI-WAY WHISKEY-BRAVO. PRIMARY USE IS FOR SOUTH RAMP OF TERMINAL(S) ALPHA, BRAVO, CHARLIE AND ECHO.

HOLDING POINT TWO (2): FACING WESTBOUND ON TAXI-WAY ROMEO-BRAVO IN-LINE WITH TAXI-WAY WHISKEY-FOXTROT HOLDING SHORT OF TAXI-WAY WHISKEY-BRAVO. PRIMARY USE IS FOR SOUTH RAMP OF TERMINAL(S) ALPHA, BRAVO, CHARLIE AND ECHO.

HOLDING POINT THREE (3): FACING WESTBOUND ON TAXI-WAY ROMEO CHARLIE IN-LINE WITH TAXI-WAY WHISKEY-ECHO, HOLDING SHORT OF TAXI-WAY WHISKEY-BRAVO. PRIMARY USE IS FOR SOUTH RAMP OF TERMINAL(S) ALPHA, BRAVO, CHARLIE AND ECHO.

HOLDING POINT FOUR (4): FACING NORTHBOUND SHORT OF TAXI-WAY WHISKEY-WHISKEY IN-LINE WITH TAXI-WAY NOVEMBER-FOXTROT. PRIMARY USE IS ON NORTH-WEST RAMP AT ALPHA TERMINAL.

HOLDING POINT FIVE (5): FACING NORTHBOUND SHORT OF TAXI-WAY NOVEMBER-CHARLIE, IN-LINE WITH TAXI-WAY NOVEMBER-DELTA. PRIMARY USE FOR NORTH-RAMP BRAVO AND NORTH-EAST RAMP ALPHA TERMINAL(S).

HOLDING POINT SIX (6): FACING NORTHBOUND SHORT OF TAXI-WAY NOVEMBER-CHARLIE IN-LINE WITH TAXI-WAY NOVEMBER-JULIETTE. PRIMARY USE FOR NORTH-WEST RAMP OF CHARLIE TERMINAL AND NORTH RAMP BRAVO TERMINAL(S).

HOLDING POINT SEVEN (7): FACING NORTHBOUND SHORT OF TAXI-WAY NOVEMBER-BRAVO IN-LINE WITH TAXI-WAY NOVEMBER-KILO. PRIMARY USE FOR NORTH-EAST SECTION OF CHARLIE AND ALL DELTA TERMINAL(S).

HOLDING POINT EIGHT (8): FACING SOUTHBOUND SHORT OF TAXI-WAY ROMEO-ALPHA IN-LINE WITH TAXI-WAY SIERRA-CHARLIE. ONLY USED IF IN EAST-BOUND OPERATIONS AND USING RUNWAY NINER FOR DEPARTURES.


They are used for various parts of the airport so the controller does not have to tell the person contact me when ready to taxi, they just say contact me at Holding Point whatever. It also can help the pilots cause they do not get as many taxi ways to taxi on, when they get on a HP they are already on an intersecting taxiway, like HP 3 is RC/WB. Which if you turn right and go up then left on WW you are at 15L which is a very simple taxi way, as with no HP, it is Taxi to 15L via RC, WB, WW, or WV. So it kinda reduces the taxiways on the pilots.

So from a pilot and a controllers point of view what do you think? What is a good thing to have the holding points, and the bad things of them. I am interested to see what you as pilots, and controllers think of them.
