I actually enjoy finding these winds and making a flight with a massive tailwind haha! I flew KAFW to KCGI yesterday, and made ground speed of 410 knots in a Cessna Citation Mustang. Hehehe. I think the tailwind was at times over 110 knots. But the trip down it was a headwind......so ugh... Rhett 7800X3D ♣ 96 GB G.Skill Flare ♣ Gigabyte 4090 ♣ Crucial P5 Plus 2TB

I also noticed how fun the VJet was to fly. Better than some payware aircraft.

January 8, 20251 yr Author Resident Nina and her daughter told DailyMail.com they were lucky to drive out with the clothes on their backs and their two small dogs Aspen and Buster. She described the scene as 'chaotic' and 'frightening' with people running, sirens blasting and planes full of ocean water buzzing overhead. People are parking their cars on the side of the road, getting out and running for their lives!' Nina told DailyMail.com. 'People are literally running down the sidewalks pulling kids by their hands and carrying Louis Vuitton luggage. One guy was running with two Gucci suitcases and a house plant. It is like something out of a disaster movie. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14260453/thousands-evacuate-pacific-palisades-los-angeles-fire-california.html 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.
