Had to Abort Loaded wrong aircraft.

restarting

 

[Dangerousdave26]

For clarification I loaded the non tip tank model out of habit. It's the one I normally fly. Either way I would have had enough fuel for this trip.

Overstressed in flight due to Accufeel turbulence

Need to remember to turn it off.

No time to refly today.
