RTWR 2018 Practice 3

Just a quick note: I apologize for my absence these last couple days. That Real Life thingy reared it's ugly (and boy it IS ugly!) head. Maybe tonight I'll be able to take a leg, or tomorrow morning.
I'm doing my best, gang!

ahoy all, I needed to do a stability test, but here's your test for the night (I just made the hop)
HCMS-HAKL
take the 737

I have the baton at HTNG, heading for FWKI:snowman:, in the DCC P-38J, FSRealWX. It's just a hair over 500 miles, but it's all that's available along this heading.

Ok, He beat me to it. Call me "wingman" :very_drunk:

Glad to have you along for the flight, Pat. :encouragement:

I made it about 497nm, so I reckon we're within the 500nm limit for this practice.

Sorry I grabbed the baton just before you did - next time you can go first!

p.s. watch out for what time you start Duenna and what time you make the forum posts. Looks like your clock is out slightly, or you started your flight before you posted... (21:01 in Duenna but 21:03 post). For the race, it'll be important that the forum post comes before the Duenna flight starts.
 
OK, I'll Pay more attention in the next flight to Duenna/post order.
I have the worst habit of hitting the power, and posting right after I pull up the gear. I will be more careful about posting first, rolling second in the future.
No trouble about the baton. I was setting the plane up, and it took me a hair longer than I anticipated. JUST long enough to miss out :D
During the actual race, I will usually give myself a 1/2 hour lead time to get all set and ready to grab the baton and go as fast as possible. A huge help for me is having the leg defined before I have to grab-n-go. Finding a proper airport for landing at takes me forever...:dizzy:

I really hate to mention this, but I didn't post a duenna last night so it wasn't a legit flight. If this had been the race we'de be in serious trouble.

Yes, I spotted that, but I thought I'd carry on for now. We can go back and fill that gap in later... :adoration:
