Cheers! Hope to see you back on Mumble next week,

EHM-2387 Eric-Jan:
I will be needing to shut down Mumble from Thursday on until over the weekend. The last bit of dry-walling and electrical stuff will then take place. We are out of the house from Thursday onward to not be in the way, and all power will be switched off during some time of that. To prevent this NAS from dying like my previous one, I am going to shut it down for that period of time. ;)
So that fits nicely with this flight :D
Have a good and safe flight!
P.S. Mumble will be up again Sunday evening, I hope.
EHM-2758 Peter:
It took a while before we finally had a take-off clearance from Brest_CTR. Obvious he was very busy handling other traffic in the region, a Boeing had to divert to Carpiquet Caen airport and had priority to land first. Nevertheless waiting at the holdingpoint for about thirty minutes made it all very real.
To make the landing in Poitiers (Biard airport) a little bit more exiting (no ATC to prevent us from doing that) we tried a simultanious landing: Trevor on rw21L, David rw21 and I headed for rw21R. Unfortunately Gian had a FS crash not long after his departure. >:( Frustrating, but I hope it doesn't discourage you from flying agian next week. Besides there were only three runways available. :-[
It's a lot more difficult to fly in formation than you think. Furthermore it's almost impossible to make a final approach and take screenshots at the same time. We ought to practice this somewhat more in the future.
Nevertheless if you take your time to search for it, some screenshots below show Davids Piper and Trevors C172.
Here're the links for the next leg, leg07 to LFSD, Longvic Dijon.
