American Airlines Virtual

Don't quit your day job Wayne.

Same goes for you too Murray.

Great turnout for this GFI - Greg Gemelli (AAV254), Rick Stevens (AAV409), Ted Martin (AAV537), me (AAV580), Sergio Sanchez (AAV742), Wayne Pierce (AAV783), Steve Sondheimer (AAV825), Omar Campanalunga (AAV925), and Jerry Swalling (AAV953).

Some of the participants still loading at the gate.

So, there were parallel runways ... and what would you do? Yes, parallel takeoffs.

Here Wayne is climbing out while Jerry aborts due to lack of power (he later gets this resolved by the great maintenance crew who reloads the software).

Me, circling back past the airport headed to the first waypoint.

Steve over rugged Alaskan terrain.

Greg and "the beast".

and Omar

Rick, "Comin' at cha".

Omar passing me below.

Greg, crusing at FL40+ and .88M

... and blowin by me.

Steve, thinking "Where are all these other planes ..."

in the crowded skies as Wayne looks to turn in behind Greg.

and Rick behind Wayne ....
