I hate it when NDB's are not there:pop4:, in this case CNY. And the 03 approach is based on CNY!
Good thing Jock was at GMMC and fired a flare so I could see him!

Down safe, LW 86258, fuel spent 4290, left 1906 - and I wish I could figure out the crossfeed system, if it's working or not!

I surely need that drink.
Sahara is loooong and dryyyy.
I nearly missed one of the few NDB's (they are only midle range),
most of the time I fly without any NDB signal.
On my way from NDB FR to NDB ZT.

Sven,

Yep, the jet I'm holding actually flies, or at least used to. It's 9 feet long, with a 6 foot wingspan and weighs about 32 lbs. We stopped performing with them just before the micro turbines came out, so this one is ducted fan powered so it would only do about 150 mph. Today's models are usually speed limited to 200. I still have one of these (we built seven total) hanging in my garagae over my car. It's a nice reminder of good times. :icon_lol:
 
Leg 8 - GQPA-GOOY, Forgot Duenna

Perfect flight, but I forgot the Duenna.
Sorry Sven, we have have to redo.
 
Hey, great that you're taking us to the jump-off point for South America.
I'm planning to take us to SBRF monday around 1500Z.

Setback!

Hi guys
Well, as you can see, we've suffered a setback...What you can't see is that we have suffered two!

My gaming rig has become increasingly unstable, so much that I've have taken the rather drastic step of installing Windows7 in a new partition. So I have spent the last 2 days installing and setting up FSX on this new installation - and it seems to work now. I'm not sure on multi-player, it may be W7's firewall, but I'm unable to connect to Buzz' FSHOST.

Other than that, I think I'm ready to give it a go later today!

Bummer to hear Sven. I haven't had much luck with FSX either so I reinstalled FS2004 for the race. Hope the repairs get you flying again soon.
