• 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.

Haven't forgot this. Just been tied up with some r/l stuff. Hope to get started back this evening.
 
Good stuff Willy. A few of us were sitting around the bar and wondering whether a couple of SAR missions might be required. There are still a few MIA (or stuck on tropical islands)
 
What can I say, "bidness" is good in Belem, but due to r/l t-storms, tonite is going to be a no fly nite again.
 
This just in from the Kellet Weather Reporter (Think 1940's Movietone news announcer voice)...

"SBSL experiencing a bright sunny day with mild tropical breezes. Light clouds and a current temp of 85F. A wonderous time will be had by all in the utter comfort of the fantastic Boeing 307- the cat's meow of the luxury liners"
 
Leveled out at 13,500 and on course for SBSL.

Payload: 7525#
TOW: 42xxx#

Thanks for the Wx update KWR!

Enroute on the the longest leg of the race for me. SBSL to Natal (SBNT). Cruising at 13,500ft and about 190 Guesstimated Speed with a 15kt headwind.

Payload: 7525#
TOW: 44960#

Should be about a 3 hour trip. Hope my old comp is up to it.
 
Still cruising along about another hour and a half or so, by my best guesstimate.
 
Finished this last night but due to SOH being down at the time, I couldn't get on here to post the results.

Other than landing on 16L instead of 16R, a pretty successful flight.
