As this flight is going to be roughly 150nm I would once again recommend a high performace single engine aircraft such sa a mooney bravo, or a step up th the beechcraft baron, I myself don't havbe a clue what aircraft I would like to gly as of yet but will let you know sometime tomorrow.
As always if you are flying a addon aircraft I would suggest starting the flight in the default Baron first so that we see you as a similar type of aircraft.
For this flight we will be taking SAM up on his gracious offer to use the teamspeak server he and his friends set up for our audio communication device. For more information about the teamspeak server and how to connect please see the following link:

IP address for the session shall be announced closer to time of departure
If you did not fill up on fuel before you left our last destination you will be eating ramen noodles for awhile as 100LL is still listed as $3.99 per gallon at minute man airport.
Please be aware that if you wish to stop for the night or for the week at KBID you are in for an overnight storage fee for your aircraft. The more nights you stay the more it costs. The manager has yet to call me back and let me know how much it would cost us to keep a fleet of aircraft there for a week...so we must press on to the next destination, forunately it isn't too far a flight to KOXC
BUT no looking at the fuel prices in KOXC at $4.60 a gallon, I'm thinking it is a much better idea to fill up ANYWHERE ELSE!!!!
