Downwind following Bert to land. Already a bunch on the ground.

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!
Robert

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
