and Rick behind Wayne ....

and me behind Rick

One of the group shots - starting w my MD80 and cw - Steve, Rick, Wayne, Greg, and Omar.

You'ld think they would have a gold dome ...

Ted, Jerry, and Sergio arrived while Steve and Omar left.

This was a lot of fun and a great group of international pilots. Also, one thing of particular note, was the professionalism with which this group spaced out, chose approaches, and communicated, to ensure safe and orderly arrivals .... then ATC showed up for Sergio and Ted and made rather a mess of things.

"North to Alaska, you go North, the rush is on." There was a vote taken with regard to the use of theme music on future flights.

I hear the music this friday and I can not sleep thinking in nuggets.


Congratulations Wayne for this GFI.

Sorry I had to bail on you guys. FSX was loading up at the pace of a snail sliding backwards down a mountain and the phone call I got promised rewards of wings and beer. I'll try to make the Sunday flight.

Awesome pics as always guys!~! Harold how do you get the close up shots of other aircraft; that's a pretty sweet effect!!

Anyway I had a blast and had to switch to the 744 at the last minute cuz the 738 was havin an issue I thought. Turns out the 738 is just fine but I didn't wanna take any chances.

I'm looking forward to the next one, Thanks again, it was a great time!!

That's a feature of FSX - the ability to jump to an outside view of other near a/c.
