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

Yes yes, plan a flight!

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

Morning Doc.

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

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

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

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.

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)

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.

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