Reggie / Alitalia / Avro Lancastrian

After dings to the aircraft at Casablanca, our onboard mechanic Vincenzo determined that the damage could be repaired.

Airlines management made the decision to continue the race. A maintenance crew was flown to Lisbon in another Lancastrian, where we ferried I-AHBY. After some fantastic work, we are ready to resume the flight from Lisbon.

Another good landing on Rwy 21 at Dakar

Pretty much overcast and could not see the ground through most of the flight. Got a bit of visibility as I descended into Dakar. Was a bit east of my intended landing runway when the airport be came visible, but was able to turn and make a straight in approach and landing.

Taking off from Dakar (GOOY) for Fernando De Noronha )SBFN) for trans oceanic leg

TOW: 65,000
Payload: 13,124
 
I lost AC power to the house at 3:36 into the flight. On battery backup right now - hope I get it back within 10 minutes.
 
Well, power is back and the flight looks to not be interrupted.

Now I have to reset all the danged clocks.
 
Safe landing at Fernando de Noronha - SBFN
EDIT - Pretty good flight - no real weather challenges. Had to keep an eye on winds and drift. When the NDB did not come up on time, I though I might be a little north, so altered my course 40 degrees south. The NDB popped up six minutes later dead ahead - so my navigation was pretty good. Cut the fuel a bit short - didn't get the winds I hoped for/ expected to carry my regular payload on this longest leg.
