Frankfurt-Mexico City-Sao Paulo

Postby Triple_7 » Wed Dec 21, 2005 10:32 pm

Finaly after a month of no flying I'm back in the sky.  This computer decided to burn yet another hardrive and I didnt have the money for another till recently.  So now its fixed, tweaked, and seems to be running smooth once again ;D  Plus a new sound card that was a freebe from my vocational 8)

After some practice touch & goes in some various aircraft I decided to leave Frankfurt for a warmer climate.  Need a break from the cold.  Managed to catch a Lufthansa 747 to MEX and then an old Varig 767 to GRU.

Almost 2 PM as we hold short for departure.

Up and away, 12.5 hours till we reach Mexico City.

Just overflew JFK at FL380 as we now head south...This route also took us over BOS, ATL, IAH...Arrived a little later then the scheduled 18:50 but at least it was a smooth landing :P
Image
Within 22 hours I was on my way to Sao Paulo onboard Varig 8671.
Image
Decending to 11,000.
Image
So nice to be in a place where the suns accualy up by 07:30 insted of still hiding over the horizon.  Final approch.
Image
Slowing down after one of the best landing ive had in months.
Image
Pulling up to the gate...7 minutes early as well :)

Already I plan to head for London within the next couple days.  So much for a vacation ::)  Maybe another time.

Welcome back to the skies!

Neat series to return with, shots 4 & 6 just scream ALTITUDE! ;D!

Dude, don't head for London, stay in the South/Central America area...it's warmer there! ;)

Cheers,
Carl

Thanks :)

I'm making my way to London tonight...And theres a reason for heading back that direction ;)

Dont know about I Fly aircraft...if its anything like a Meljet i wont be able to get a decent framerate.  Posky is about the only ones ive had any luck with :-[

Deffinatly enjoying this new sound card though....finally the roar of the engines is more then just a high pitched whine :P
