Oops. I included VOR "ID:ZQA" in the flight sim flight plan. Ignore this if you like.

Cheers,

I'll be there. How many hops are there still left in this tour, James?

Crash

Im there...im changing the oil on my 182 right now

Hello Lads...!
Very few gas pumps available on this trip!
The only one is at Nassau (MYNN). VOR 112.7. NDB 251.0.

Would long range tanks fitted to the wings be a good idea...?
LOL...!

Not many Nav-Aid's either...!!!

...anyway...If anyone wants the FS Nav flight plan, here it is...>>>



Watch out for Space Shuttle take-offs at Nassau?... ...!
LOL...!

Another fun hop

Great flight again tonight my friends. Tomorrow the European Tour starts. Let's hope it'll be as much fun as this one.

Crash

For once, I was there from the beginning; I even took the time to warm the engine up.
At first I had some problems: I didn't understand that we WERE landing at hop #1 and we were NOT landing at hop #2 and had to correct in short final both times.
Landing at hop #1 was interesting in that I was confronted by a Cessna (dunno whose: I forgot to read the licence plate... too busy wetting the seat... LOL) taxiing back on the runway and I dipped my nose into the ground in a desperate attempt to avoid a fatal crash.  :D
The remaining legs went a lot better for me, and the landings were satisfactory too.
Here's the close formation that marked the end of the hop. That's Ecko (who joined us late due to miscalculating summer time adjusts... but in turn he was noticed for performing a "series of tactical manouvres" ) landing in front of me, with Fozzer and Jimbo already in the parking lot, as usual.  ;D
Nice finish uh?

Lovely screenshot!

What are you flying there...?

Cheers,

James

Nice shot.

I've got one too.



Great flight guys!

What are you flying there...?

My old Piper Cherokee 140.

Damn!! I am going to have to start watching for these hops too. Flew in the SA Hop #8 last night and it was a great time.

Will be keeping an eye out for the next event you post Jimbo.
