Funeral tomorrow.

TOO AWESOME!

I sure hope it's slow at work tomorrow and I can get home early!

Hey looks like we missed a great event North to south. Where can one the other flights 1-68.
Thanks

I think Chuck has this Charter file, it would be a good idea to put a charter option in the download section in our Pilot Center.

Nice, too bad I can't fly for a while, the screen broke on my laptop like 3 weeks or so ago and need money I don't have to get it fixed. i'll be keeping tabs on the forum though to see what's going on.

I missed the 8:30 take off because I had to mow grass while it was dry enough, we've had wet weather in PA. So I flew the first leg early Sunday morning in great weather set to 8:30 AM (REX and OPUS).

Here are some shots into this tricky airport-Toncontin. Pretty easy in the Pilatus-12, but I would not like to fly jets into here.

Really nice pictures Barry. I had a great time Eugene and Chuck also showed up. My first attempt was to takes Cal's DC4. But I never fly this and after takeoff she just dropped right out of the skies, sorry about that Cal's. Its now in the back of the hanger with a few scratches in the paint job. I will make an attempt to fly this bird in the future.
Any way after going back and getting a second plane all was well. I encountered lots of bad weather with thunderstorm. Here are some pictures of my flight.







This is a picture of Chucks plane. I do not have a DH3 or DH4 in my library. So I could not display him in the correct plane.

I was flying the venerable old Caribou last night. Turns out I had the slowest bird on the ramp!!

Here is a picture of Eugene passing me...



Due to Frank's issues with the DC4, I was able to get to MHTG before him!! In fact I had to hold short for his arrival....



I hauled out of there quick hoping to get a good head start on him for one last leg...but he managed to reel me in fairly quick....



It was fun getting back behind the controls...will definitely have to do this again soon!!

I noticed those T-storms when I was practicing there Sat morning. All was nice and the wind let up by about 5:00 AM Sunday. I had real weather on and just advanced a few hours to get light.

Nice pictures guys!
Chuck, Frank, you guys may have noticed me try to do the flight, I loaded up the CVA default B350 but from the moment I started it it went crazy, nose jumping up then slamming down sparks flying everywhere, she was going all over the runway and I didn't even give her any throttle. I finally gave up and did a little painting. I may try it again later tonight but with a different plane.
