• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Moses' Melbourne Or Bust Revisited / Lockheed Twin

Arrived safe in Karachi (OPKC). This was a milk run if ever there was. Clear weather, steady modest tailwind, ample high range NDBs, and a coastline to follow if anything went to heck.

Turns out the Aussie Jimmy Melrose had landed just a few minutes ahead of us. We taxiied over and said hello. A pleasant fellow that young man. He even helped chock the Lockheed.

Also, Dangerousdave had also arrived within the past hour in his red DH.80A. Keeping the locals busy at Karachi today.
 
Finally down in Rangoon/Yangon (VYYY). Welcomed uneventful flight. Tried like heck to find a tailwind but it wasn't meant to be. We must have looked like a wounded dolphin constantly going up and down looking for the least resistance.
 
You can get a lot of flying in when you have a day off from work and the wife and kids are off visiting family. :kilroy:

The Esso map is marked up for Selaparang (WRRA). Departing momentarily.
 
Drat! I'll have to pay that VooDoo high priest for another CTD! :d

Dang, tough crowd! Just remember, I have cinder block minions stationed all along the race course. Hope your aircraft has a locking door and someone with insomnia on board. :icon_lol:
