Skyking53 - Modern GA - Cessna 414 Chancellor

Landed in one piece (and not in a crumpled mass either!!) at WATT in Kaupang, Indonesia. Pressing on for Australia shortly. A light is beginning to glow at the end of the tunnel.....

"G'day Mates!" Have arrived safely at Compulsory Checkpoint #4, YPDN, in the "Land Down Under", Darwin, Australia. A little cloudy on the way in, but all went well. Just got here but am anxious to move on already as Melbourne is not that far away (relatively speaking).....

Don't know for sure what happened. Computer crashed and forced me to abort this flight, however there was no record in my Duenna output folder except the SystemLog.TXT for 2009-11-16. Will try and fly this leg again later.....

I would like to take a moment and thank the Committee and those involved in the 2009 London To Melbourne Challenge and say what a fantastic job! Unfortunately, engine problems and the inability to complete repairs on a timely basis took me out of the race at Darwin (actually a major computer crash), I had an enjoyable time nonetheless. And while I was never in contention as far as the actual race was concerned I did accomplish the goals which I originally set for myself, that being the correct use of the Duenna system and proper reporting.

Thanks again to those involved in this venture. I look forward to next year and some serious racing. Job well done guys!
