Steve will be there next Summer, but I decided to get there before him! :lol:

 

Flying down to Talkeetna.

 

 

 

I have the airport in sight.

 

 

 

 

I rarely take a look at the fuel level because it is always in front of me on the HUD. But, since I was panning around the cockpit, I took a glance. What a gorgeous gauge!

 

 

 

 

On Short Final.

 

 

 

 

And parked in front of the tower!

 

 

 

 

Best regards.

Nice flight Luis, winter is coming once again!

Another airport in Flight with nice details.

I know that Luis likes to fly in season, it's more realistic. This year it seems that the snow and river ice are arriving a little later than normal. Tough sledding so far!  

You're right. My problem is that I take this much too seriously - I am a "serious simmer". :lol:   I always set real time, adjust the weather for the correct winds, use checklists and flaps, and do my patterns. I even fly procedure turns. And how many of the self-proclaimed serious simmers even know what that is? :rolleyes:

 

But, the downside is that I never fly at dawn, in the A.M., evening, or at night. So, from now on, I shall set the correct date, but keep the time from when I last shutdown. This way, I shall get to fly at all times of the day.

 

Although I am tempted to only fly in the Summer months. Ah! if only I weren't such a serious simmer... :lol:

 

Best regards.

Luis

Its the same as last year.  No snow on the ground and we getting into November.  Just hope there isn't a cold snap like last year.
