Using the same rules for P1 P2, and P3 proceed from FACT to SCGZ with 1 stop above N70.

For this practice we will allow each pilot 1 wildcard leg of not more than 1,000 nm (3 hr time limit).

Pilot requirements. After you advance the baton on your first leg your next leg must be in one of the MS/Lockheed Default aircraft. There is no time or distance limit on this flight. This is a one time requirement although feel free to fly a default any time you choose.
 
Ground looped! :biggrin-new:

Baton back at FAAB.

SOMEthing weird happened. I crashed on take-off. Turning onto course, suddenly airspeed dropped to 0, stalled, too low to recover. It wasn't pitot heat problem, because that's just an indication problem. Plenty warm enough to prevent carb ice. NO idea what happened.
Batan is still free at FAAB.

I'll try again asap...
Pat☺

EDIT:
I just tried it again to see if I could duplicate whatever happened. No trouble on take off at all. Turned onto course fine, climbed fine, good airspeed the whole way. NO idea what the heck happened.
On a brighter note, I DID get the Post/take-off order correct this time. :adoration:
Oh well, I'll try again another time...
Pat☺

Were you doing a hard bank and yank? Tom did an excellent job on the air file. If you bank it too hard and pull back too hard on the rudder you will fall out of the sky. Unless you have at least 5000' of altitude. Then you might be able to recover.
 
With the F7F, on take off, I always use one notch of flaps, and around 3-4 degrees nose-up trim. Just let her fly off which doesn't take much runway.
 
The baton is free at FYWB
