Imelda says she needs more shoes, so I guess I have to go find some gold..

Ohhhhh.. wasn't THAT special!! All seemed normal until I was airborne and setting course.. should be 286* but the mountains looked too big... climb a bit and finally see where I should be going... 70* off to the left.

Having seen the problem before, I guess I have to tidy up the Addon Scenery -I've added the Sara and removed it, added the [LINESTRIKE]Lex[/LINESTRIKE] Nimitz off NC and removed it, and added Sidney's CYCB... the problem lies with the [LINESTRIKE]Lex[/LINESTRIKE] Nimitz if I remember so a bit of housecleaning and I'll be ready for the big over-water leg.

In the meantime--
 
jeepers, Rob;
looks like we might be flying
the same plane, in the same direction.

ya know, these's plenty of time
to take several short naps
on that RPMD tp WABB run

i'll keep my other eye out for yaz
and maybe we can tootle along together...
if you want to, that is.

btw, what are ya planning
on putting in that cup
when you get it?
 
Well smilo, I'm planning a pot of Boston Clam Chowder and a crock of baked beans... already picked up the Montreal (Habs) Smoked Meat and soon to have a side-dish of Philly (Flyer) cheese Steak...

Looks like it'll be something from Florida after than and probably finished off with a dessert made from the Vancouver bowl of granola...

All washed down with copious amounts of Sam Adams drunk from the Cup.
 
WABBa- dabba-Do!

An hour before dawn...
Smoke belches and sounds break the tropical quiet...

A Boston climbs into the sky and sets off across the sea for Biak, Indonesia

All in all, a nice flight (yawn)

5 miles off course at 75nm out and 43 gal of fuel remaining after I pushed the speed on the way down...
 
safely down at AYNZ. Descent was steep and landing was hot even with the rear gunner/ballast hanging out pretending to be a speed brake
