RTW 2015 Practice 1
- Thread starter PRB
- Start date
Wingman for WAMM - WASS in the Citation X
Wingman down and safe (Whoops, I thought you had already landed since I left well after you)
Rules require that I land after you I think so you could hand off to me so this would not be a legal flight, right?
I think it's ok if the wing lands first. But I do have to officially declare the wingman transfer. According to last year's rules, this can be done retroactively (or at least retrospectively...) So, I officially conjure the Wing Transfer Rule, upon the occasion of my crash.

I have the baton, WASS to WAKK, A2A P-51H.
At 719nm it's slightly over the 700nm, but there's nothing else on the south coast of Indonesia just short of 700nm.
And since all my flights in this part of the world seem to be in the pitch dark, I'm pleased it's got a lit runway!

True, for last year's race. But we set "ground rules" for each practice, among them, in this case, the 700 nm limit, with the "exception" that Martin made use of, correctly (see post #1). In past years we would limit legs to 350 nm during practice sessions, to ensure more people got to fly. That was when we had a lot of pilots...
