Buzzbee Western Air Adventure to Argentina

[buzzbee]

That was an interesting flight. The CAA is still investigating the cause. The captain may have been away from the controls when there was a loss of airspeed. The autopilot tried to keep the nose up, and teh airplane ended up in an unrecoverable stall and nosed down.

Witnesses say all engines were running. Too much airspeed built up, and the pilot must not have been able to pull out when the wings failed.

The head stewardess was serving Gin and Tonics prior to our departure, so management has decided to take the shorter hop into Cartagena. There is some conflict about the airport destination. I only see SKCG in the flight planner and charts, but the race rules show SKVC which we can't find in our FS 9 charts so we are filing to SKCG.

Down safe at MPMG - Almost landed at the wrong field, but made and extra turn around the area, double checked the charts and decided that nice long, well lit runway was not the one we wanted.

Safe landing at SEGU after some drama. For some reason the fuel system was a little strange and drained the right side tank completely. For a little while we were flying on #1 & 2 alone. Managed to get #3 started but never could get #4 to start and I was almost there and did not want to risk killing 2 good engines.
