  1. Wow! Into Meigs no less! Great run & looks great!
  2. Welcome Chris! Don't worry to much about technology. My rig predates this:
  3. Off from Newark for the quick flight ATC hasn't lost its penchant for traffic separation! Shortly approach has us Every generation has a few that just arch their necks every time too see that bird overhead! I'm ready for oyster season! Guess we're not the only ones! Kick that crab out Whoa now! Ready for a gate! Thanks for viewing.
  4. Quick flight from KCLT to KBOS via KEWR in the A-319 Departure from Charlotte was uneventful and on time- the SLF in back are going to have to deal with some chop on the flight north. Heading up to cruise at 34,000 ft. Back down to look at the United States largest city before NYC took over, and a capital of the country, Philly. Popping over the Delaware river. So much for a good Philly Cheese-steak! No longer the 727's screaming over the New Jersey Turnpike... Lucky the traffic is not back to normal approaching this runway! Ready for a coffee but the turnaround to Boston is too short:mad: Ready for the preflight walkaround just to get out of this cockpit and stretch. Getting to Beantown in Reply
  5. Great shots. Really some rugged terrain- glad for durability in construction. Not a lot of options to dead stick.
  6. Well, had plans to pull out the DC-6 tonight but now we're going to go play in the water. Good shots!
  7. What kind of range does that 370 get? Looks like you could make a heck of a 370 super guppy! For transporting, say, glaciers!:pilot: That's huge! Thanks Rick
  8. Cool shots. +1 for the retro America West Airlines!
  9. That's about the best way to get through JFK! Good trip David!
  10. Good shots David. Rick, David has been like the Eveready battery lately. Tons of great flight time while I've barely managed to water test the fuel under the wing..... :) Cheers to all.
  11. Never go wrong with radials.... :pilot:
  12. That last shot is refreshing! Gotta go get some air time!
  13. Thanks to all. IRW my dog goes just about everywhere with me in the truck. Nose out the window and her right paw on the armrest. Best companion ever! Fly safe!
  14. Boy, I was hoping for lakefront departure..... Great flight. How's that 350 fly by hand?
  15. Elmira was one of the northern prisons in the American Civil War. On a lighter note gliding aficionados from all over enjoy the nearby Harris Hill. National Soaring museum is fun. I'm ready to land! The onboard lavatory is not the best.... That 737 ahead left some nasty wake turbulence. Have to stay focused! Headed to parking to shutdown and get this puppy home!
  16. A relative had sent their dog into a specialty surgery out of state which was successful. Now Bowen needed to get home. After picking him up from stabilizing after surgery we performed pre-flight checks on my Arrow after stowing the luggage and the dog. With filled fuel tanks, IFR flight approved, we began the taxi to head north. That windsock promises crosswind takeoff! With this unpleasantness Buncombe County still has not gone back to it's full and busy flight schedules. Cleared for takeoff! Asheville Regional Airport to Elmira Corning Regional Airport. 555 miles. ATC has us climbing to 7000 for now, expecting 10 Light chop - hope these hills don't whip that air up! PIREP's gave a smoother ride up here so ATC gave us 11- not too bad and the dog doesn't mind. (Thank goodness he likes that elk antler bone! Keeping my fuel consumption down has paid off and we're in smooth skies for the most part. Never enjoyed any hill in the dark with my plane - my IFR certification was one of my first things to do after getting my PPL! Fortunately the dog has slept most of the flight. The skies aren't overcast for once. The lights below are Corning- headed east now! Continued in reply.
  17. Like your progress. Be watching! ✔️
  18. Loved the pre-show flight. Really enjoyed her flying in between the seven mile bridge!
