Craig’s Cape-to-Cape Voyage of Discovery ‘Due South’

[MM]

Beautiful pictures, Craig.

Braniff International now announcing it's departure from Interlaken for Marseille-Provence, with connections to North Africa.

Edit: Just realized I forgot to check the box to disable the autopilot in the duenna. Drat.

Looks like I'll be fighting a 40-kt headwind most of the way to Marseille. Double-drat.

Only making 130 kts groundspeed at my last checkpoint. Ugh.

Craig,

You want to restart the leg with the "disable autopilot" box checked...just to assure that you are indeed flying without autopilot. No penalty for the forgetfulness...just ignore the leg as flown and do it over.

Another successful leg in the books (that's two in a row! Woo hoo! )

Mike, thanks for the note, but I elected to push on. It's going to be hard to find the time to fly, so I'm OK with missing a 15 min. bonus.
