Willy's Golden Age flight to Oz in the Twin Beech

I sure miss the old duenna program. I never had these kinds of problems with it. Same thing as before... it thinks I went to Africa. I got a flight analysis shot as a back up. Grrrr......

ETA: This old comp occasionally freezes up for a few seconds. No rhyme or reason to it, it just happens now and again. I suspect the freeze ups have something to do with it.

Very strange errors there Willy

But we can see the log shows you enroute on your appointed flight path then suddenly jumping to 0 latitude and 0 longitude twice.

Of course this is physically impossible to happen.

For some reason in this same time period your got the Same Aircraft error as well as a bunch of Warning: FS unavailable

I can not really say why it happened but it clearly is a good leg.
 
Leg 6 ORBS - OIBB

Loading up to head out of Iraq and into Iran. Customs and the race inspectors decided they didn't want to look in my crate so bad after all... :d
 
Drat! First FS locks up solid on me, then my comp bogs down. I'm going to do some maintenance on this thing tonite and try again tomorrow.....
 
Leg 6 continued ORBS - OIBB

Going to try this again. (I've got a theory that I was hit with a shoulder fired missle by one of Achmed's minions somewhere north of Basrah last night ;))

Off to Bushar Iran!
 
Leg 7 OIBB - OIZJ

Let's see if we can do this again without breaking anything. Heading out from Bushehr to Jask....
 
Leg 10 VIJO to VIAL

Going to try and make it to Allahabad for the second checkpoint. I'd like to at least get as far as Calcutta today.
 
It's been a rough flight so far. Took 3 tries to get started and the FOG is back.

Paused at 21:48 Zulu to go feed my horses. Hope no one steals the Beech while it's stopped in mid-air.....
 
Hmm... I might want to do a complete look over of the Beech before I un-pause ;)

Took longer than I thought. Our 600lb colt Chief decided that he was Mr Billy Bad Arse and we had to have a "Come to Jesus" moment or three with him. I like to have caught a hoof upside my head a couple of times in the process, but he's being a good boy again now. Darn that rascal is strong!

I'll be un-pausing here in a few minutes.


Un-paused at 00:08 UTC
 
Finally arrived at Allahabad (VIAL) for the 2nd Checkpoint. Kind of a zig-zaggy flight path while I was chasing NDBs.

Pics...
1) the circled thingy is the Taj Mahal
2) fog at 9500ft, can't see the ground
3) approach into Allahabad
 
Leg 11 VIAL - VECC

I can't stand it.... Heading out to the "black hole of Calcutta"...
