• 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.

New Years' in Monterey or bust!--jkcook28

One down safely.

Pilot to "scientists": Forget about creature comforts, get in, sit down, strap in and shut up....:d
 
Time to log some jet time.
The scientists' were alot less surly boarding the Convair rather than the eggbeater!

SEGS-->MM1H. Convair 990A (painted as a 990 :d)
 
2hrs to go. Not much going on so chased some winds for a bit for lack of anything better to do.
Flying lower than I'd like but everthing above puts the wind square on the beak. How unusual...
 
Added excitement. As I posted the usual FS wind shift and a flurry of panic-stricken keyboard commands puts me well on the way to 60sec of overspeed at 8.4
Back to monitor the barber pole.
 
Trying again with no interruptions this time other than I need to shovel the forecast 1" of snow that fell under the 5 additional that is still falling.
Anyway, SEGS-->MM1H. Convair 990A
 
The next two legs:
MM1H-->MX85. Convair 990A (Shows departing Z22F in duenna :isadizzy:)
MX85-->MMEP. CH-53

One long loud one to go...
 
California here come!

First I must "interpret" the rules.
A quote taken from one of Robs' followup posts:

The definition of "piston-engine, propellor-driven transport"? well, how would YOU define "transport"?...

From Dictionary.com:

trans⋅port

  /v. trænsˈpɔrt, -ˈpoʊrt; n. ˈtræns
thinsp.png
pɔrt, -poʊrt/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [v. trans-pawrt, -pohrt; n. trans-pawrt, -pohrt]

–noun
4. the act of transporting or conveying; conveyance.
5. a means of transporting or conveying, as a truck or bus.
6. a ship or plane employed for transporting soldiers, military stores, etc.
7. an airplane carrying freight or passengers as part of a transportation system.

Therefore, I'm off for KMRY, Boeing TB-50.
(and there's plenty of room in there for 10 wienie scientists!)

I guess it depends on which dictionary you read...:kilroy:

Bombs and/or recce equipment could be considered cargo.
