Enroute on the the longest leg of the race for me. SBSL to Natal (SBNT). Cruising at 13,500ft and about 190 Guesstimated Speed with a 15kt headwind.
Payload: 7525#
TOW: 44960#
Should be about a 3 hour trip. Hope my old comp is up to it.
Still cruising along about another hour and a half or so, by my best guesstimate.
I've got ADF signal!
Finished this last night but due to SOH being down at the time, I couldn't get on here to post the results.
Other than landing on 16L instead of 16R, a pretty successful flight.

I've flown the last 5 legs to finish the event, but currently can't seem to attach any kind of a picture file. I'll just attach the text files for now.
SBSV - SBRJ

I decided to combine a few legs and had to fly this one twice. The first time I got within ADF distance and the power here went off. I reflew it the next nignt.
Landed in IFR conditions on radio silence. Stinson was landing on 20L, so I landed on 20R.

Short hop from Rio to Sao Paulo. Foggy as heck at SBSP and if it wasn't for the ADF needle, I'd never have found the right airport.

Good flight with excellant weather on landing. Real smooth into the last airport for Brazil. After I'd landed and the Duenna stopped, FS crashed to desktop on me. Good thing I already got the good Duenna.
