Birthday fly-in EHM6 years

(1/3) > >>

EHM-1651 Christian:
I decided to go out and check if the TCAS on Murray and Brunos aircrafts worked;D




Murray got disturbed in his cooking of dinner while I paid a visit so I take that as a yes for his TCAS to be ok.
Hope you didn't burn your dinner Murray;)

EHM-1883 Matt:
Well, this truly was a brilliant event! I can only say one bad thing about it, and that's for a lot of the time across the Atlantic, I had to go and do other stuff, but luckily my plane managed to keep up with the rest of you while I was gone. I was lucky enough that when I came back to fly, I was caught in a 67 knot wind above Canada. That gave me and Javier something to play with!

Anyway, here is my, uh, massive batch of photos for you!

Leg 1: LSZH - EGLL with Javier and Ben

Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures at the beginning at the gate, but I got to take some holding at the runway. Here is my first picture, with me behind Ben, holding at the runway:


Ben taking off, and me powering up the engines:


a bit of the Alps:

Javier coming into view. Nice turning!


Over the channel. Starting to get prepared for the approach towards Heathrow


Fog in London. Anything else new?


on finals in different views:






Landed at last:


Javier landing at last:


Ben landing. He had a great landing. Right on the centerline.


Finally, the finished flight. We went straight to Pizza Hut after that:


Leg 2: EGLL-KATL with everybody!

Unfortunately, it was late for Ben, and only me and Javier could go. uh, great start!


Javier fixed that problem with slew:


Taxiing to the runway:


Javier powering down the runway:


Across the Atlantic:


Land at last; Canada!


Coming into the praries of America:


Approaching KATL


2 pics of me on finals:




Landed!


Javier landing:


all the way from LSZH, we were now in KATL. Amazing really:



Thanks to Bruno and Murray and everyone else for making this event possible! This is the second event I've done where nothing has gone "horribly wrong"! Thanks for the fun, and once again, happy Bday EHM!;D

EHM-1749 Hector:
It was great indeed. My only question: How did you guys do to label the flight EHM9999? I could not.
I opened the FLLogger but found no way to do it.
Appreciate your input for the next event.
Regards,
Hector

EHM-0654 Murray:
Bit late to be telling you this now Hector, but all the "legs" for yesterday are timetable flights!

Ooh, and another thing for those with pictures, don't forget to upload at least one to the gallery and attach it to the event page... Maarten's excellent new fly-in manager links into the gallery, so if we all add at least one picture, the post fly-in page will have a pictorial record (added my one picture already... Christian, you so didn't get to see what I was *really* flying...)

EHM-1821 Javier:
