• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Correctly spelled "Konnichiwa", it is japanese for "Good Afternoon"
 
Yep, just landed (for real) in Tokyo. Business Class on JAL is nice.

Sorry I won't be there to fly over the finishing line with you guys, but well done to everyone in the (somewhat small!) SOH team. :very_drunk:
 
Baton is free at MRLB

Kudos for a valiant effort! Well done Gents!
Not sure whether to offer a couple of dozen Whiskey Old Fashioned Sweets, Sauce of Choice,

-or-

A couple of dozen "duck feather" filled, oversized pillows.
You make the call. You earned it.

Wingman down safely at MRLB.

Reporter: " Tell me, now that you've burned the candle for 3 days and flown thousands of miles, where do you want to go?"

Pilot (with expression of one dealing with a very young child): "SLEEP!!!!"

g'night all!

:encouragement:
 
Can someone post the times please ? The official site doesn't want to play nice.

NVM, found it in the bonus bank section.
 
Times on the official site are unofficial times until the committee can review any outstanding items and release a NOTAM with the final results.

But unofficial numbers right now are:

AVSIM : 54:42
SIM-OUTHOUSE : 57:55
FLIGHTSIM : NOT FINISHED


Great job Sim-Outhouse, you gave us a good fight with far less resources.
 
A little late in sending you all congratulations, but I finally got my posting permissions sorted out!

Well done! Mr. Murphy seemed to visit us early and often this time out, a little more often than we at Team FlightSim (or any other team for that matter) would have liked.:dizzy: We WILL finish the Race, so be sure to leave a few in the cooler for us. We'll be along shortly (or longly). After we're all landed safely at MRLB I know what I'M gunna do!:very_drunk: 'Till then,

Fair skies and following winds,

Ponch,

Thank you for posting. And, thank you for hanging in there to run out the race. We were almost in your shoes both nights when we were down to one person still awake and flew back-to-back legs with penalties as no one else was available. We understood your predicament and felt your pain too. Hopefully, more members will show next year to help carry the baton; that beast gets very heavy in the wee hours with no one around. :)
