    Really liking it was the main reason I switched to the Argentinian Pulqui II. Itty bitty fuel tanks just mean I have to stop and gas up more often.

    Hoping to be Nice and Lesiurely inbetween exam revision in a Handley Page Victor. Hopefully my new one in house livery will arrive from the sheds soon!
    All modern aircraft have four dimensions: Length, Width, Height and Polotics. The TSR.2 simply got the first three right

    Better late than never Willy. Here it is:
    Falcon409 will be flying the Mig-15 "NX151MG" and dedicated to Pilot Tom Righetti who was killed in this aircraft on his way to an Air Show at Oceana.

    I will state here, that while I am flying the route as outlined with interim stops where necessary, I am not considering myself "in the competition". This is more for the fun of seeing how I can do on an extended trip like this. Tally Ho!

    Now that's a fine looking MiG.

    I didn't figure on winning anyway either. It's more about the adventure of completing the trip.

    Just for the log.

    Effective immediately I withdraw my participation to the Pacific Rim 50's Jet Race.

    Just no time. If I keep going at the current pace ETA is in october ... 2011.
    Another great party I'll miss...
