Nice handoff JC.

 

[jkcook28]

Had to get one good one before race ends!

ete: :37

ete :29

 

[Moses03]

...I'll be away at a Christmas party about then...

Let's see Rob take the controls after an eggnog...or several!

 

[PRB]

Have baton from USUU to UNOO in a garden variety P-51D.

Hmm, I'm not sure those have been approved. Got flight test data? :d

 

[PRB]

Might I suggest to the team this; after Moses lands this leg there will be 3 left. Couple guys knock two out and we do a team flight online to UIBB to finish. Since everyone is likely tired of night flights, turn on daylight (and wx off if you prefer).
Maybe 0000/2400UTC (7p CDST for me). Could go later if need be.
Any takers?

I like it. I'll be there.

Let me get back to you on that.

 

[jkcook28]

Baton free @ UNNT

Thundersnow, cool

 

[PRB]

I have the baton, UNNT --> UNKL, Lockheed P-38L

 

[jkcook28]

Wingman(illegal if handoff, but what the hay) for Paul, Boeing 787!
Hows that for breaking rules?

 

[Dangerousdave26]

Wingman for John

I HATES Rules

UNNT --> UNKL, Corsair F4U-5NF

 

[PRB]

There's a 55 knot tail wind at 23000 feet. It changes to a 50 KT cross wind above 24000. ETE 0:39.

 

[PRB]

ETE 0:15. It's getting light towards the east, and the weather seems good. Last post before landing.

 

[PRB]

Baton free ar UNKL.

 

[Dangerousdave26]

Second wingman down safe

 

[jkcook28]

No duenna run, but got a screenie passing Paul.

 

[PRB]

Ok, shipmates, one leg left to complete this practice. UIBB is a large airport, with lots of lights and no terrain "issues", and would be a great "first time leg". Any takers? (*Smilo*) :d

I'll hang around, checking now and then to see if anyone wants to do it during the day and wants a wingman...

...round about 4 PM CST (00Z), if we're not done, would be a good time to assemble the armada for a group assault on the finish line.

Ooh, the Dreamliner, nice! I guess that's the CamSim version?

I guess the RTW rules won't allow supersonic flight, but you never know....

I don't have the baton (someone with a sensible aircraft can take it) but I'm heading from UNKL to UIBB in Concorde.
