    Diverted to VTUV. Truth be told I did forget to top off my tanks in the C-130E but lucky for me it had big tanks so it was never a problem. Now on this little bird its a problem. The engine cut out after landing so I need a tow! Looks like I went M1.03 also ouch

    BTW Greg. Your M=1.03 is not problem. The pilot incurs a penalty only once he hits the magic number M=1.05.
    (I have plenty of experience in these matters... )

    Dang! I rushed my landing as my kids got up and it did not turn out to well. Will have to re-fly the leg later.

    Mt last leg was from VVNB to VVDB. I cant say this was uneventful. I had to make two go around's. The cloud cover was not very fun for me. Its a wrap in the MIG-21
