Just made it:

[falcon409]

I have the Baton. UUYY to ULMM. SU P-38J Lightning.

[falcon409]

Cruising along at 30,000...the view is "uncluttered", lol. That's the White Sea ahead, but still 100nm before I reach it.

[falcon409]

About 30 mins from Murmansk...ULMM.

[falcon409]

Baton is free at ULMM.

[falcon409]

I have the Baton. ULMM to ENSB in the PAD MD-11.

[falcon409]

Baton is back at ULMM. Very poorly modeled aircraft.

[falcon409]

I have the Baton. ULMM to ENSB. Flying the SU P-38J.

[falcon409]

30 minutes to go.

[falcon409]

Baton is Free at ENSB. I'll leave this to the judges, but about 10nm from the airport I clicked on the moving map I had running to zoom in closer. For whatever reason, it moved the airplane to the bay area north of the runway thus causing an "overspeed". I continued with the landing which was validated but the "overspeed" caused the flight to be invalid. Refly?

[Tako_Kichi]

I think we can call that good Ed but watch out for that map issue as it will DQ a leg in the race (or at least cause a wingman transfer/30 minute penalty).

So with P2 officially over look for P3 in a race forum near you....SOOON!

Yep, will do Larry.

[Milton Shupe]

Yep, will do Larry.

Ed, most of us run FSNavigator or use some like tool to avoid the Map feature and provide info in much better ways.

It wasn't the map Milton, it was FSTramp, which is the FSX version of FSNav. I was drawing a box around the area I wanted to zoom to and in the process it moved the airplane.

Ah, my mistake. Again, it's why we practice to learn these nuances with Duenna. One to remember. :-)
