    Departing OMAD

    Leaving OMAD for Hail, OEHL. Almost an RTWR baton handover.

    FS clock is set to an hour after Beech Boy 2's arrival in OMAD.

    Duenna error, restarting from OMAD

    Grrrr, the Duenna went red on my takeoff roll and I got an error message to the effect that the server can't start the flight. Restarting from OMAD.

    Duenna server issues, running this leg offline

    I have restarted my flight from OMAD to OEHL successfully, but the duenna was unable to connect to the server. Therefore as per the provision for such an event in the NOTAM dated today 11-2-2014 I am running the duenna offline for this leg.

    Jeff, I don't know if you have any thoughts of another flight today (I doubt it after the day you've had!), but my ETA into Hail looks like around 2330Z.

    Looks as though we were having the same problems Nick.

    Landed at Hail OEHL

    An uneventful flight after the duenna issues, just a 40kt headwind to contend with.

    No online duenna tracking, looks like due to server issues.

    Icon26 Moving along to Alexandria (HEAX)

    Taking N406KA from OEHL to HEAX (Alexandria) via the Nuweiba NDB. That should keep us well south of the Iron Dome

    Headwinds? I thought it must be the drag from the large frontal area of those glass panels

    Leaving HEAX - my last flight

    About to depart from Alexandria HEAX for a little run across the Mediterranean and up the Adriatic to Split, LDSP, for what should be our penultimate leg - and my final contribution!

    Landed at LDSP - I'm done!!

    Landed at LDSP. When I came to a stop the duenna returned the error message of server says can't stop flight. I then noticed that my internet connection was experiencing a temporary interruption which is presumably why the map didn't show and the online tracking doesn't go all the way. The flight seems to be fully validated in the text file though.

    The Beech Boys have Arrived in Mildenhall

    The final leg for the Beech Boys is complete. Ron landed first after restarting his OOM'd flight in Belgium. Although Ron's landing was un-official it does reflect what would have been the correct arrival sequence. I landed about 8 minutes after and Nick landed 3 minutes later.

    Well done, Jeff and Nick! I should probably consult with you guys on a/c choices next time...and pick something with longer legs and a more forgiving airframe.!

    Jeff, you're forgetting the leg you had to re-fly. I reckon the honours are about even.
