As many of you know, I havee an attraction to flying in really bad weather.. Well, this time I maybe bit off more than I could chew.. Truly, it made me wish i was with the gentleman in the other post, relaxing in british columbia..
I took off from the Dominican republic.. The first airport i tried was just inside the outer ring of Hurricane Maria, and my plane was quite litterally, and immediately flipped over on its back by the 130 some MPH winds. I next tried a little airport called Cabo Rojo, which was was west of the storm, and headed due east into its maw.. I thought i'd take some photo's from inside the storm. Sorry. There was no time. Most of the time my IAS was pegged at 700MPH, and i was working my butt off just to keep the plane flying. I do admit, that there were a couple times when I wished my mommy was there.. This is a horrifying storm, even in FSX. The eye was gorgeous tough. Calm as calm could be, but then, it was back into the teeth of that thing, and a fight to stay the air. What an amazing flight it was.
