Real Time

[DanM]

What's the longest time you've spent flying orbiter in real time? I think the longest for me is just getting to orbit. The longest COMPLETE flight I've done in RT is probably flying the pattern in a DGIV or some sort of shuttle abort.

About three or four hours for me. I'm sure some on this forum have spent the whole day playing.

I flew NASSP for the 40th anniversary of Apollo 11. But, the sim wasn't run continuously. I just performed the maneuvers at the corresponding times. And I might have skipped a couple steps

Launch to orbit and rendezvous with LongShot in 600km orbit for me. About 3+ hours. That is, if moonwalks in AMSO don't count. If they do, then about 6 hours.

Real Time, Real Date flight to Mars in a DG on a dedicated orbiter machine. Way back though. Hail Probe.

Using a fleet of DGIVs to keep the ISS in an Earth-Moon free return trajectory. 62 days and still going, although I've occasionally had to reload after a botched burn or re-entry.

Lol, Nick. I remember back in VNASA, I think it was Matt, NBH, and I were flying some sort of Apollo Mission, I think a boiled down version of 9 and I'm pretty sure it was in real time.

I once were on Orbiter 3 hours to make a full reentry and landing with a DGIV. It were ca. 12 hhours real time, eith tie-warp between 1x and 10x.

I do most of my flying in real time the problem is even though I can fly like that for ages my computer dosen't approve it decides to turn it's self off. So the longest i was on for in real time was around 1 hour.

I don't fly real-time too often; I'd like to but I don't have the time. However, I do love vAGC in NASSP, and that keeps me from going above x10 time accel, so I've spent a lot of time with that. Probably about 5 hours straight once (partially at x10 accel), though I wasn't paying attention the whole time
