Flight 10 - Boy, my ass sure is tired

That's a direct quote from Ernie. We've been too busy - that really cool seat cushion we ordered from Amazon hasn't caught up with us yet. We somehow managed to complete the entire flight series. Nancy is doing fine - we've managed to keep her out of trouble. Man, I've got stories... Meanwhile, here...

Weather? Yeah, we got some!

Fellow Birdmen: About the weather for these flights: I use Active Sky for weather in my P3D v5 flight sim. Sorry, but I don't tediously enter the weather using the "custom" feature. Instead, I just use historical weather for the date and time that is given with most of the flight briefings...

Re: World Tour 2023 Flight-03

Extremely fun flight! No entertainment whatsoever, as I was flying it in the P3D sim. Ernie was coming unglued, and Nancy was screaming as we made our approach into Rwy 15 at Snettisham. We managed to get the airplane stopped just before the end of the runway. No idea where all the folks who did the...

Flight 02 - a good flight - nobody died

Second flight was very good. I filed IFR with the P3D ATC and started out that way. Everything was fine until the second time they told me to climb to 7,000 and then a minute later to descend to 6,200. WTF? I canceled IFR with P3D and flew along in “stealth IFR,” executing a decent ILS approach onto...

WT 2023 Flight 01 notes

Hi guys: Flight 01 was pretty good. Only problem was that Nancy busted Ernie and me because we didn't fly under any of those bridges on the Ottawa River. Hey - they were all pretty darn low, but that didn't matter to Nancy. I told her we'd try to do better next time. Keep on rockin' in a free world....
