WITH VECTOR THIS TIME
I had to wait until late in the morning, in fact, the early afternoon, to start this journey. AS14 with ASCA does a great job of portraying PNW (or in fact any) weather, and we were fogged in until just now.

Having overnighted at Bowerman, I decided to leave the Scout in the hangar there (very reasonable rates I might add) and having just had my Flight Replica's Super Cub delivered, take that to Vashon. Here I am, in my best Avirex jacket (loved that one, can't fit anymore) and about ready to head east. Lana fed me breakfast, and even shoved a couple of sandwiches my way, after filling my old green Thermos with her very best Seattle coffee. Thanks Lana!
Here we are taxing out to the active... and there are already others getting ready to follow... they must have been waiting the break in the fog too....

She surprised me a bit while climbing out.... my first Champ had a 65hp Continental, the second an 85.... but this Super Cub can really claw skyward... she ought to be great in the Bush.... that's right... SHE IS!

Orbx has learned that if you really want to suspend disbelief.... the detail just HAS TO BE THERE.... still can't get over the fact that this is FREEWARE! Thanks Orbx!
