While the remaining pilots of Fliglht 19 were grounded for a short time, Dudley and I took a little flight in the Harpoon down the Oregon Coast to our old stomping grounds.

Nice flight down the west coast to KOTH. Sometimes, it's amazing what you can see....
Let Being Helpful Be More Important Than Being Right.
Finally, with help, figured out the Multi-Player for FSX. Just a couple of pictures flying south along the Oregon Coast.
Nice flight to Eureka CA. The more I fly it, the better I like this Harpoon! I might have found my replacement for the ol' Beech 18.

Nice flight to Sacramento. We were scheduled to land at KMSF, but I've been mucking about with the CalClassic retro scenery to see how it works in FSX and apparently KMSF didn't exist in 1959 as they had deleted it. So with the lack of facilities (and airport) there, we diverted to KSAC instead.
Two more stops and this one is done. So I decided to switch back to the Santa Fe C-46 as I've flown it more than anything else this trip. (and I need to test it to see if my FSX conversion to it works out ok)

Well, we made it back to Santa Monica although in different aircraft from what we left it. It turned dark on us during the flight and my landing wasn't the best, but we made it. I knew I should have went around for another try, but at the start, I thought I could pull it off and the more I went into it, the worse things got. Note to Self: It's never to late to go around!
Anyway, we're looking at low and slow aircraft for a planned "European Vacation". PA18-200 or Sikorsky S39? Decisions, decisions...
