June online event - Fit the First
« on: July 01, 2006, 04:12:42 pm »
Makes a change that I'm the one starting the screeny post, but if you've read my PIREP post in the online forum, you'll know why...

Anyway, onto the piccies... Banding in the sky is because I'm using 256-colour PNGs (to keep the filesizes managable)


Iain and I lined up waiting for anyone else...


Iain is on his way (and like all good Spit pilots, of course I started the engine with the cockpit open...)


Turning after initial climb-out, this was pretty much the last time I saw Iain.


The old girl in all her glory. As I say in my PIREP, not a cloud in the sky over France.


And a little bit later (over Switzerland) it's like I'm in a different sky.


Belp (the destination) is over there somewhere...


Turning from the deadside downwind, that's rwy 32 below (which I was expecting to land at right up until I got the ATIS from the tower controller)


Base turn.


Turning (a little late, but I was under "radar control") onto final.


And shutting down. ;D

Yup, just Iain and I (and Iain didn't last terribly long...)

But there's still the "return leg" tomorrow.

I was wondering what happened.... I flew all the rest of the way. My ADSL refused to initialise after randomly quitting (had nothing but problems since Wanadoo switched to Orange). At first I didn't twig why you weren't talking on the TS channel, or why I couldn't update IvAe.

Hopefully I will get better luck tomorrow on the return leg.
