Morning, guys!

Gee! You are really set on getting me into trouble at work! :eek:

Geronimo '74 05-19-2011 11:05 PM

You can have a quick peek already, I don't mind.

Yes yes, plan a flight!

slodave 05-19-2011 11:06 PM

It's a local x-country flight... Not one to Europe. :)

Geronimo '74 05-19-2011 11:06 PM

Morning Doc.

You keep getting into trouble because of us? Or because you keep coming back, knowing what to expect (especially on a Friday)

Tsk tsk tsk :)

This plane would run out of fuel well short of Europe. Splash down in the Atlantic somewhere. :D

Geronimo '74 05-19-2011 11:13 PM

it's not the type of plane that can refuel during flight?

Morning, Markus!

G: Yeah, no.

Okay, done for the night. Looks like a 162 mile journey, round trip. I'll see what the winds are doing in the morning and see how that affects flight times.

Cruise speed with 0 wind is about 130 MPH.

About the same as in the 911 then...

slodave 05-20-2011 12:36 AM

Sounds about right. Slowest I'll go in a normal flight is about 91MPH, fastest 155 or so.

Getting heavy rain and serious lightning. We need this rain.

The lightning is scary heavy. I'm not even going to attempt to photograph it, i like being not crispy.

My dad used to fly Cesna's, ages ago, but I still remember the many flights we did.
(I even piloted myself at the age of seven. Well, I could hold the stick/steering thingy, I was too short to reach the pedals.. Good times)

You can take pictures from inside hte house too Sid.. ;)

G, That's cool. I couldn't see over the instrument panel in the beginning. Learned how to basically fly IFR first. :) I remember sitting on phone books at times.

slodave 05-20-2011 01:01 AM

Sidney does riskier things and would go to Mars, but won't go outside to photo the lightening. Hmm... :D

Geronimo '74 05-20-2011 01:02 AM

Whuahahahaha!! :D

Morning guys, Man I am tired, I think I need more than 4 hours of sleep a night

Geronimo '74 05-20-2011 01:30 AM

Morning Rick,

does this mean you are grumpier than usual?
