Problem with my first use of cigarbox
« on: October 28, 2023, 08:27:56 AM »
Hi everybody,

i have a problem with the use of the tour center : for my first flight with Cigarbox i choose the MFC0001 tour and done the 1st leg with no issue (flight and approval). This is when i wanted to "book" the 2nd leg (PANT to PAKT) that i've done i don't know what but the leg immediately will be recorded as "completed" ! And he is "pendng" in Cigarbox ... So i'm stuck there. How can i deleted this false 2nd leg for doing it again with a real flight ?

Thkx for your answer.

You flew leg one via cigar box: that completed leg one. You filed a manual pirep for leg 2 and it triggered leg 2 to be completed, so left is leg 3.

Go into tour 1, click leg 3 details and select "Fly Leg" then "Go Flying! " 
In Cigar box, click on the Get Flight Data button and start flight when your sim is ready. Fly the leg.
When done, in cigar box click on the stop Flight button then file pirep. Leg 3 will complete and the tour award for Tour MFC0001 will be issued to you.

See my email.  (sent to the email you registered with at MFC)

Hi Norm,
i think all is clear for me. I've done leg 3 and i hope it will be ok.

A last question (for now ...) : what is PIREP acronym for ?

Thanks for all your advices

Yes all is fine now Philippe.


PS: Pirep is short for pilot report - Here at the virtual airline, pirep is the complete pilot's log of a flight from start to finish.
