On to JCB. This will be the final leg this morning.
Down at JCB. More flying tonight.
Down and safe for the night. Pulled the Tigercat close to the treeline and pitched my tent under the wing. Good night's rest is in order.
Overnight equipment stowed, aircraft fueled and ready. HFD to WABB.
After several IFE's I finally completed the leg. Down at WABB in foggy conditions.
NOTE: for some reason the Duenna is not producing a jpg file.
Errors:
19.08.2015 16:14:57z Graphics failed to generate. File 'C:\Users\falcon409\Documents\FS-DUENNA\OUTPUT\TEMP\$MAP_TEMP.GIF' not found.
It seems that my gif was named $Map_Temp_Tiny.gif. Where that came from I have no idea. Renaming it.
Well. . .that didn't work as now that gif is gone completely. GREAT!!
No worries, Ed. The text file contains everything we need.

Ready to go. . .WABB to WA1A.
Down at WA1A for the night.
A few shots to close out this flight.
I have yet to have a nice clear day in the Pacific, maybe these last two legs will afford me a view of what's below me rather than intermittent holes to see through the clouds.
Time to depart WA1A for WAMH.
I've been thinking it must be monsoon season or something..
Let Being Helpful Be More Important Than Being Right.
I believe it Willy. I figured I'd have nice blue skies and blue water to look at as I passed over the Islands. Instead I see very little water, occasional thunder and lightning and just the tips of mountains, lol. Today is no different, at 4000' I can just make out what I guess is water below me through the clouds. Oh Well.
Drift meter came in handy this morning. 22kt crosswinds the entire 441nm. Without it I would have been a hundred miles to the east and no possibility of finding a dot in the Pacific. No NDB to home to either.
Final leg. WAMH to RP17.
Down and done at RP17.
Some final shots and a shout out to all who participated and especially to those who put this whole thing together. Great job! Best of luck to those still flying and to those who plan to rerun the race in a second aircraft. While not flying to be competitive, I still enjoyed the change of pace. . .if not the scenery, as I rarely saw any of it until I was on final, lol.
Congrats and save a cold one for me!
