Hi Norm,
Yes, DTPark is our usual hookup these days for the sims with joinFS. To find someone, click "View" in the menu bar. Scroll down to "Users" and a window will pop out with a spreadsheet-style list of everyone on that server within a given proximity to you in your sim. Ideally, you should be at the same airport as your wingmates already when you load into joinFS and get ready to fly.
I have Discord, and so does Wingnut (Ron). I don't know much about it, or how to use it. We have never used it for our CCMP flights yet. But we could.
Yes, we finished the flight. Ron had troubles getting going and into the sky, but Gunter and I were up and climbing to 14,500ft. in our big, graceful C-47's in no time. We traversed the volcanic ridges and finished with a 20 mile descent to 5,000ft. through the mountains and valleys of South America's new landclass textures. Next week we are off to Italy, for a dangerous approach scenario.
