teson1 Edging the Rim

Few days ago passed by Darwin and saw one nice looking plane. Gotta try it out.
Nobody's looking, hehe...
Sneaking out in the middle of the night to Kupang WRKK.

I took 24 years and 7 months for the last event, reckon I'll have to finish this one faster or they'll catch up with me...

Dang,
should have read the POH. Retracted the gear too late - didn't get in...
Returned to YPDN.
Suboptimal. Oops, there's lot of cars heading my way... Guess I'll better not wait to find out what they want...

Taking off again...

Good Luck on your way!!.....

Thanks Austin.
Got neither skills nor good looks, so I need all the luck I can get... :d

Gunter, do you recall who won the Evita?

:salute:

[teson1]

LOL, MM. Had completely forgotten about that... and looks aren't that bad either :d

However, I'll not be able to finish this race within a reasonable amount of time; Business trips and short vacation trips haven't allowed a single flight in the last few weeks.

If I go on like this it'll take months to complete this trip.

So effective immediately I withdraw my participation to the Pacific Rim 50's Jet Race.

I'll continue it on my own though. Interesting route, interesting planes, new stuff to learn - excellent job by the planning committee.
Thanks!
