Los Angeles International Airport

TO

San Fransisco International Airport



293NM over sunny and smoggy California!

Approx departure time: 7:30pm.


I'm assuming John will be using the 146 and Shane the free 737.
If you are using something different, or if your name is not listed above and you will participate, post the details of what aircraft you will be using.

My aircraft: To be decided...

I'm planning to be there again.  I'll be in the Jon Murchison BAe 146-200 in the United Express / Air Wisconsin paint.

best,

PS:  Hey... we're in California on this one....... maybe we can get Fozzer to lose some sleep for one occasion and join us.  He can start the route WAY earlier than we do and meet us there in his trusty Baron.   Or follow us in and watch for severe wake turbulence.

LA to 'Frisco... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

Highways... 1 (Coast)...101 (Silicon Valley) ...5 (Central Valley)... 8-)...!

...My favourite route which I travel most days...in both directions... ...!


Your 7:30 PM (U.S. Time) flights means I have to keep awake until 1:30/2:30 AM (the next morning)....(I get tired very quickly after Midnight...my Teddy Bear needs me)... ... ...!

Our 7:30/8:00 PM European Flights work out well for our U.S. Flyers; around 1:30 PM in their afternoon... ...!

...but not the other way round... ...!

...other wise I would have used my Default, turbo-charged, Trusty Beech Baron 58 (its the fastest G.A. Prop Plane I have in my Hangar), and a spare Chat Window......!

(I've got the Dreamwings Bombardier Dash 8-Q400 Turbo-prop, but its a bit of af a handful...and its not Default!)...!

Paul...G-BPLF...FS 2004...FS Nav...and a bottle of "Stay Awake" tablets.. 8-)...!

.... ....!

P.S. I may accompany you...if I can stay awake long enough...VOR to VOR, NDB to NDB......
...no problems with my trusty, stable (NO Router!), Multiplayer, FS 2004 system!......!

Guess what......I have to work an extra day on Saturday, so the flight will have to be rescheduled. I'll have to figure out when a good day would be.
Sorry.

Never mind, Sean...

If there's nothing worth watching on the Tele, (there rarely is!), I might take one of my favourite flights from LA to 'Frisco, hugging the Pacific Coast, with the amazing Highway 1 always down below me for the whole journey!

What a FANTASTIC scenic route that must be to drive along in real life, with the ocean always visible off your left shoulder, and the mountains to your right, (when travelling upwards! Its reversed when traversing the route in the other direction...trust me!)... ...!

(The road can be followed through Oregon and Washington, right up to Seattle!)
Highway 101 runs parallel to it, just a short way inland all the time.

Paul..G-BPLF...FS 2004...FS Nav...and a book of; "Places to visit and things to do in Sunny California".... 8-)...!

.... ....!

What other times don't you work? How bout friday sunday or even earlier on saturday?

No guarantees but would this coming Friday evening work for you guys? Around 7:30pm?

I'm game!

Aircraft to come...

[edit]will use ua319pa.zip from avsim [/edit]

Friday probably is not possible for me.  Will be "on the road" that day and may not get back in time.  Ditto on Thursday.  Sunday evening at 7:30 is great though.  Also could do Wed. evening at 7:30.

Sunday evening around 7:30 would be fine for me....

Sunday at 7:30 is perfect for me. 8-)

Sunday will be great! 8-)

Lookin' like Sunday evening at 7:30 PM is shaping up to be "the" time.  Sean....... make the "official call".

Fozzer,

You could try taking the default Lear 45 for a spin or two.  It is sorta' CLOSE to GA.  It COULD be a GA aircraft for a really rich person.  

That plane would easily keep up with the rest of the "metal cigars".
