After diverting around severe weather, we all converge on St Louis. Here Rick is landing on 30L while I'm on 30R.

Group shot - 2: from bottom clockwise - Wayne, Murray, Rey, me, Sergio, Rick or Jerry. As far as I know everyone who started. finished - no equipment failures.

Was great to have old-timers Rey and Greg join us on this flight. Hope to see you again soon guys.

Also, for the absolute newb, Murray, and the almost, Jerry, we're glad you had the courage to jump in and try (and do very well, too). Now you know why online GFI's are so much fun - part the friendship but also part the challenge just like the weather divert we had enroute to St Louis.

We've got room for a few more newb's to join on the next GFI - who can pucker up a little courage?

Awesome Pics Harold! The GFI's are always a fun time and when you get a few surprises it just makes em better. Just after getting the handoff from Indy CTR I was messing with VatSpy and the next thing I knew I had a comp freeze epoch dimensions :). Needless to say I reloaded at the St Charles airport just NW of STL and flew a quickie from there and was the very last to get in..lol.

This was great and I have next Fri night off...already looking forward to the next one!!

Thanks
