Worldflight Hamilton NZ 2024

By Duncan White

I'm fundraising for the Waikato Westpac Rescue Helicopter

What I will be doing:

Our team "Worldflight Hamilton NZ" will be operating two Boeing 737-800 fixed base flight simulators in the VATSIM Worldflight event.

I want to do this because:

The Australian teams usually support the Royal Flying Doctors Service, so we thought we would support a similar charity in NZ. In the last six years we have raised $6,120 for the Waikato Westpac Rescue Helicopter.

About this service: The Waikato Westpac Rescue Helicopter is a fully-fledged air emergency medical service that services the whole of the Waikato region, including the Coromandel and the King Country. It brings life-saving equipment and rescue personnel directly to patients, 24/7, 365 days a year, and is staffed by an amazing & experienced crew of Critical Care Flight Paramedics (CCFP), Crewmen and Pilots. Donations from fundraising go towards the operational costs, which helps ensure the rescue helicopter can continue to carry out life-saving missions, whenever and wherever needed.

A big thanks to all of you for your donations to the Waikato Westpac Rescue Helicopter.

Altitude hold now fixed !

Tuesday 5th Nov
Finally tracked down why altitude hold was not working correctly in my sim. It turned out to be the wet compass script. It runs every 1/8 of a second. Changed it to be every 1/2 a second. The script has not been changed since November 2018. Seems to work now. Fingers crossed. I can remove the script if it causes any further problems.
