RTWR Practice 2: The W->E Thread

Yep, one of my most exciting landings in the RTW race was at an unlighted strip in South America. At night. In a thunderstorm. I was flying dcc's P-38. There was zero (0.0) chance of finding that airport were it not for some of our team mates on the ground. 10,000 foot lighted runways are not always available. It's good practice to pick the hard ones, during practice...
 
At altitude. About 20 minutes out. Just wanted to make sure I could still land this P-51B. We shall see...
 
As this is practice, things are a bit lax. However we have to also be practicing "good behaviour" and trying to be thorough.

As such, BEFORE launching on a flight, please make sure your Duenna is set to record in a 'safe' event. There is a SOH Practice event and other places we can use so please pick one of those, not one we'd like to keep "clean" like the 2017 RTW Race Official Tracking :)a1089:).

10 minutes. Could someone call the resort and have them send out the water buffalo shuttle please.
 
Baton is free at ZMBR in a mile vis (fog)
Last eight miles at 140kts trying to find a runway in a bowl with no lights and no navaids in the soup. good practice

Thanks! It feels good to get back into the swing of things.
I noticed that I got some more info in my inbox a couple of minutes before top of descent. Time now to peruse those new gems at leisure.
