Might not make it, though...Headwinds (typical!), not yet light and v.e.r.y close to the 750 limit -not to mention the 2 hours...Oh, well, tanks mounted - let's rock!Sven Sorensen, EKCH

Diverting to KSJT.WX rapidly deteriorating at both my alternates, and KSSF is too far with this headwind!Sven Sorensen, EKCH

[svenks 4]

This would have been mission impossible without ILS...Low vis, rain, dark... Yuck!Will wait for daylight and see if the WX improves at KSSFBRGDSSven Sorensen, EKCH

It wasn't any fun driving through it in real life Saturday either.

Low vis, rain, dark... Yuck!Remember for this event you can set the FS clock to local daylight for all your legs. You do not have to fly in real time like in the RTW.
