• 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.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Roberts flight across the Pacific

Uneventful flight. Clear weather and a crosswind all the way.
Near Morotai.

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.
