Departing KBFI in about 5 minutes or so. A newboe so nerves now evident. Good job the case of rum is to hand!
 
leg 2

Thanks Mate.

DCA996 departing Bowerman on leg 2 after 4 days of solid gardening both at home and at mother in laws place! This will be a nice break.

Head winds again I see! Oh well, noone ever said I would do well in this event. Getting to the final destination in one piece will be a win of itself!
 
Landed safely at 4S2. After getting to 7500 it eventually turns out that I had a nice tail wind for most of the flight. However, almost caught out when entering right base for runway 25 as the winds commended to change through almosty 180° and on final I had a 10 knot tail wind which made my landing, that I was already committed to, a tad dicey!

Now about to attach the required files to this a posting.

Good show here mate!


For a "Rookie" it looks like you've done this all your life.


Best of Luck on the rest of the journey ... hope we can "get up" for a flight or two.




Cjeers,
 
Landed safe at Spokane KSFF.

7 knot quartering headwind until 15 miles or so from destination when, as seems to be the case with these flights, winds changed dramatically so I came in on runway 21R

The bottles of rum are still unopened but might consume at least 1 bottle during my next 5 days R+R in Paris. Flights resume for me on 16th May.


Not sure, but I think I remember hearing that you needed to have a patch over one eye in order to drink Rum in Paris .... could just be the effect of too much TV.


:isadizzy:
 
Crashed as had to leave aircraft on auto when someone called from out of town out of the blue. As a rookie it would be nice if I could have this as one of the mulligans.

Now about to fly this again once I have re-started FSX! :redf:
 
Landed safe at Jackson Hole. Had not adjusted the time on the departure and was getting concerned about a night time overflight of the moutains to the NW of the field. In a setting sun scene (very pretty with REX textures) and trying to stay below 10,000 for any length of time I found myself in a canyon witht just the one way out leading to the plain on which the airfield is located. A mighty relief to see they had runway lighting. Must remember to check the flight better before I set off so that I have not only a reserve of fuel but also daylight!
