Weather started out clear. Had a cross/head wind to push all the way. Then approaching Mindanao, came the t storms. Descending into it, just by luck seeing Malita.

Congratulations Robert. Excellent to see the Zero (A6M5 division) in action!
We can add another mark to Jiro Horikoshi's list of accomplishments.
 
Thanks Mike. She was a pretty good ship. A couple of surprises with the weather on this adventure. Sometimes it is better to be lucky than good. Now to find some drinking stuff.
