Trans-Canada Adventure Leg 4

Postby Cherokee_6 » Thu Sep 04, 2003 11:24 am

Hello All,

I continued my adventure and left Winnipeg, Manitoba and carried on to Thunder Bay, Ontario. It was nice to get into some scenery that was half decent to enjoy along the way.

Surprisingly, this leg of the trip was very remote! Along the route there was only one little airstrip that I came accross, other then that it was just lakes!

Once, again AI traffic was able to give me a surprise that required me to do some "sky dancing" to avoid kissing the backend of a couple airliners. You will notice in screen shot # 9 that out of nowhere I had about 20 AI planes all around me! One minute there was none and then next minute BAM! I was swerving around them like pylons!

Destination for Leg 4.

Waiting for a Caravan to clear the runway...

Passing by Winnipeg Int. Good climb rate...Gear up...

As soon as I hit the Ontario border then all you could was lakes everywhere. Here I am crossing over "Lake of the Woods"
Image

As mentioned, it was a pretty remote route. This is the only airstrip that I came accross. It was Sioux Narrows.
Image

The flight looked as though it was going to be clear sailing but then I hit a temporary wall of cloud! I climbed to 8000 ft and got above it.

Here is where all the AI traffic decided that they would join my little airspace. Notice the TCAS in the bottom left and see how many aircraft are around me! Of course, ATC started babbling for about 15 minutes trying to make sure everyone had their own pathway.

;D ;D ;D  I have made many a trip between Toronto and Winterpeg and return, but would love to have done it in a small plane, and catch some of the scenery.

Interesting Trip and Don't sweat the landings, you are doing alright.  You want to see some of mine. lol

Splash ;D ;D ;D
