We didn't mention it last evening and actually we didn't notice it at all, but now I realize that Gian has obviously overcome the problems with his Flight Simulator. For the second time in a row he didn't encounter any problems. The four of us did, though not with the FS but with the weather on the way. From Dijon to Reims we had a clear sky, but after that fog, that became thicker and thicker as we approached Amiens. In real life flying impossible and very dangerous to do, but we had to land at Amiens (Real pilots in real life don't have to deal with something called Flightlogger). Only Trevor flew in a totally different world and reported "runway in sight" at 2.5 nm distance. The rest of us flew in a grey world. Nevertheless, thanks also to the lighting of the runway, we managed to get our planes down safely on a desolate airfield.
The pictures down below are a little differeent than the ones before.I tried some panoramic shots.

Sorry folks, I missed the hop yesterday. I flew it early this morning, just to catch up. See you hopefully next week!

Dense fog at Amiens made us (Trevor, David and me) decide to change our flightplan from VFR to IFR. At 9000 ft the world looked a lot clearer. Strasbourg Tower showed up on the screen long before we reached our destination. The poor guy had to wait a long time untill he could guid us in. Probably fell asleep while waiting for three of those light aircrafts that were crossing the north of France from west to east.
The links for our next leg: leg10 from Starsbourg (LFGC) to Thise (LFSA).
