Another Close Encounter!

 

 

 

I thought you might like to see some SS of my latest encounter. This took place in the state of Nevada. It is a clandestine flight from Fallon Mun. (KFLX) to Derby (LOL) and the distance was 34.9nm. About 26.8nm from my destination, JAFO said he spotted another plane close by, but it only lasted a second. Then at about 24.5nm out, I had a second hit, and this time he got a lock on me.

These are SS along the way.

After landing I went to the overhead view and watched as he circled above me, never coming closer then .5nm from me.

Ah, still another encounter! This time I had a clandestine run from Blue Canyon-Nyack (KBLU) to Auburn Mun. (XAUN) and it was a distance of 26.1nm; so I knew that LE (Law Enforcement) would probably be on me at takeoff or shortly thereafter. I got my first hit as I was taxing for takeoff. I proceeded with takeoff and dove down the first canyon on the south side of Interstate 80 that would take me to my destination, when I got my second hit, and he locked on to me at this time.   :Cry:

These sets of SS were of my run down to canyon trying and make it to my destination. :o

Well on the first attempt, I was busted, so I restarted the mission. Being familiar with the area, I decided to try flying down the canyon on the north side of Interstate 80. I took off and did a 180 headed for the other canyon. Just after I crossed over I-80 I had this hit from LE, but no lock.

 I continued on into the canyon, and this time I completed the mission. :lol:  :ph34r:

Here was another CE, but it only lasted a few seconds. This was a clandestine flight from Blue Canyon-Nyack (KBLU) to Kingdom (O20) a distance of 77.5nm. I was about 25nm from my destination when I got this hit. :ph34r:

I continued on only to be hit with this on final. I thought I was going to have to go on instruments and execute a missed approach, but being able to see the ground and with the 41kts wind I slowed the plane down to a crawl and made my way to the runway, and it was a really a short roll on landing. :lol:

Until next time, a good day to all! B)
