Most of us. Steve had to make an emergency landing not too far from Halifax. Jeff is still enroute.

Here Wayne is moving to "touch" Bert.

and the second. I think this is the winner cause you can go either way ... there's only forwards (unless you are one of those half-empty kind of guys).

and parked.

This was a fun little GFI with ATC at both ends and a great turnout. Super to fly with an AAV oldie like Jeff and a newb like Murray. I think everyone had a little challenge and a lot of fun. Some more challenge; some, more fun.

See YOU, next Friday.

Harold,

How do you like that J41? I've had a seriously itchy "buy button" finger on that one!

Is there an FMC? It looked like it might have one in one of the PMDG screenies; I heard it sounds fantastic too.

Thanks!

Get it, and, yes, there's an FMC. Playing with those turboprops (and not burning them up) is a little challenging at first but quite a sense of accomplishment. You'll also learn she does not want to slow down, so you need to think/fly further ahead.

Why do you think I asked if it had an FMC... :P

I'd rather think about where I'm gonna put that Molson Brador I got from Murry's place so I guess I should have also asked if it had a cupholder too...LOL
