Willy's Flight of the Gee Bee to Oz

[Willy]

Well, I am having some panel & radio problems. Fortunately there's this Sikorsky S43 parked over by the KLM hanger that no one seems to want to claim. Looks to have everything I need in it....

If you find my "Celine Dion's Greatest Hits" CD in there, keep it safe, I'll pick it up in Melbourne...

I thought Celine Dion was a brand name for drink coasters....

[Willy]

taking the Bee Gees homeH

 

[Willy]

Thought I'd fly this on the SOH server.

 

[Willy]

H! How's it going?

Should be picking up the ADF signal for WRKK here in a bit.

 

[Willy]

Landed safely at WRKK. All these good landings in a row must be a trap set by the crash gods.

It was a nice early morning flight over the Timor Sea. Left WRKK a little after 4 am in a pre-dawn take off. The sun came up enroute and somebody who was supposed to be flying the plane nodded off. I woke up directly over the airfield in Darwin still at 10,500ft. Just put it over into a tight turn and dive and circled my way down to approach altitude and entered the pattern like I do it like that every time. A few smallish bounces on landing and rolled to a stop just over 2 hours from when I took off... Wonder what they eat for breakfast in Oz?

Thanks Huub!
