I did not have time to put anything together. If you are doing a flight tonight and want company just post your schedule with a time of departure. Either I or someone else could join.

I'm going to fly from Terrace CYXT to Bella Coola CYBD via Kitmat and Bella Bella NDB's. About 190 miles in a Twin. If anyone wants to join. Probably do it soon though, like 6 PM EST or so.

Thanks JC. I wasn't totally alone. Some guy landed in front of me and watched me come in. But he was using the newer Vpilot and saw me as an Airbus! Said it was quite interesting to watch! Two bad things about Vpilot: 1: It requires some file work to set up the airplanes you want it to recognize. Otherwise my Seneca Twin could look like an Airbus. But it can be done.
2: It doesn't do the comm2 voice channel we use. Not built into it, at least not yet. Thats reason I thought maybe we should just use teamspeak. Seems a lot of guys have trouble with that voice channel, and it may be keeping them off-line.
So I have gone back to FSInn although I'm not crazy about it. VPilot was very easy to set up.
Barry, That reminds me a multi I did last year not on saturday evening as no time, but on the sunday morning concerning the Panam trail. I was landing in Chili and an another pilot was ready to take off so he waited for me to land. He sent me a message after I landed "Hey man, what kind of aircraft is that ? I see you as a triangle". In fact I had the CVA DHC5 Buffalo. So that makes me laugh. So I cannot understand why he saw me as a triangle as I saw him as an Airbus A319 of the LAN company and in fact he had an Airbus A319.
