Willy's Calamitous Cargo Run

***Willy*** · May 24th, 2011, 19:23

Going to stay at AYNZ for another night. The guy in the brown truck stopped by and left me a box of computer goodies that I'm itching to install.

***Willy*** · May 26th, 2011, 13:03

Having issues with the computer goodies, but decided to try and knock out a few more legs before this weekend.

Flew to the coast and followed it around to "Bird Nest" (Finschaven/FIN)

On to Cape Glochester across the water from here...

Shortish flight to Cape Glochester (CPG). Good thing that it's pretty easy to find.

Going to stop here and offload some coffee and donuts before heading out to AYKV after while.

I'm now 99.9% sure I know perzactly what's causing my occasional Duenna error. It's the Radio/CD gauge. Or better said, it's when I go to change CD's in it. My comp goes to read the CD and locks up FS for about 20 seconds or so. This time I had the Duenna pulled up and watched it as I put the new CD in. FS stopped then the Duenna flashed red for a couple of seconds.

Anyway, I should be showing an error now just after the 14 minute mark into my flight.

Landed safely at AYKV. And spot on at approx 14mins into the flight I got an aircraft state error. At least I now know what's causing them..

Heading on to Rabaul (AYTK) from here..

Made it in to Rabaul easy enough. Going to stop here for a few days. We've got a high priority mission coming up over the next few days.

Hmm, so Mr. Duenna gets all bent out of shape when you switch CDs?

***Moses03*** · May 27th, 2011, 10:24

Those awful Bob Seger CDs are really throwing duenna for a loop...

***PRB*** · May 27th, 2011, 10:27

I think he was listening to Celene Dion...

***Willy*** · May 27th, 2011, 11:43

I think it was the Enya - Led Zepplin combination.

MM · May 28th, 2011, 06:27

Barry Manilow's greatest hits?

**smilo** · May 28th, 2011, 08:38

i'm having a real hard time
picturing Willy singing along
and playing air guitar
to "Whole Lotta Love"

sorry Boss,
i couldn't help myself.

just for grins,
i think i will try to duplicate
the duenna issue during my next fight.

Now that Taco's run has been finished time for me and Fred to get back to the C-46. Took it on down to Buka (AYBK) which has me set up for the final leg to Munda (AGGM). Hopefully, I'll knock it out tonight.

All aboard for the express run to Munda. I'll be on the SOH server if anyone wants to stick their head in...

***Willy*** · June 2nd, 2011, 20:58

Not a bad flight for an old fat plane! Once I found the aircraft carrier I knew that Munda was getting close.

It's been a great event and I'm looking forward to the next one.
