This is a complex scenario painstakingly put together via Artlav's Scenario Maker. It features a Delta Glider in Earth orbit.

Feeling funny, eh? :D

EDIT: although I think you guys should give him a break. I mean everyone has to start somewhere. Even I think my DGIV skins are not in the same league as the others used by most people, but I hope to get better with time. Give him the opportunity to get the hang of things and we just might have a master-scenario maker in our ranks.

Could not agree with you more on this, really. But it was the sequence of the posts that I found funny, I must admit it. My stomach still hurts!! No malicious injury meant at all.

Thought I'd add to it. Hope you don't mind. Here's that same scenario with a TransX plan for a single burn within 1 orbit of the original scenario date. The subsequent free coasting sling trajectory allows 2 slings of Venus then a sling of Earth going then directly to Jupiter.

Code: 
BEGIN_DESC
Start using Delta Glider in Earth Orbit. Scenario has TransX plan for a 4642 m/s burn that allows free coasting slings of Venus, then 1 orbit to Venus, then 1 orbit to Earth and then direct to Jupiter.
END_DESC

Edit: I just flew this triple sling and wanted to add that when arriving at Jupiter there are options for continuing. You can either sling to Saturn or Uranus or Neptune OR even a combination of Uranus and Neptune. But if choosing the combination, the pass at Uranus is fairly wide.

Wow. Copy paste copy paste. Lol. Guess you got to start somewhere.
 
Looking at who the author is! I'm pretty sure I've seen the name before ;)

I think this scenario was a bit tongue-in-cheek. A complex scenario painstakingly put together by Artlav's scenario maker? :lol:
Great writing!

It is completely tongue in cheek, I assume based on this post:

http://orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?t=10587

But the funniest part was that this post:

http://orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?t=10595

...showed up on the board immediately afterwards (the very next post, more of the same sort of stuff), by the same author of the first one. I have not had such a good laugh for months! I ended up feeling sorry for the poor guy who did the "scenarios". I am sure he'll get better, but it was worth it.

Thanks for the amusement!!!!

PS. Edit:
And flytandem's transX add on "booster" is class A1 stuff. You have got me going again....!
 
First and foremost, yes, this is somewhat of a joke based on the earlier thread. ;)

You hope I don't mind? Sir, it would be a sin to leave that scenario there by itself, taking up precious bandwidth.

I haven't played with transx for a while, I should give this scenario a go.

I wasn't trying to be mean, I simply took the opportunity for humor. Even with new guys, I find it hard to look at a simple scenario such as this and find any true effort in it, unless the author wrote the file from scratch.

Oh great, someone who knows who I am. From the government? Any EMT forums? Theology Online?

Artlav was wondering whether anyone would upload a scenario using his Scenario Maker in the previous thread, so I took some creative liberties...
