Another Flight

I’m beginning to get comfortable with the plane now, and completed another flight of about 2 1/2 hours today from Savannah to Birmingham. If you havent noticed, I’ve put a menu item at the top of the blog entitled “Track the Plane”, and you can click on it to see the path of whatever my latest flight was. I’ve also got a new IPad app called CloudAhoy which I will be using soon to let readers reconstruct a flight in detail with a virtual view of the trip using Google Earth. The reconstructed trip can be sped up as much as 10 times so that a 120 minute flight can be viewed in 12 minutes.

Here is a link to a YouTube ad for my plane posted by the broker I bought it through. The music is absolutely horrible, so I would suggest you mute the speaker before watching, but it does give a fairly dull overview of what N881RJ looks like.

In Birmingham now for a couple of days before heading down to Orlando Tuesday or Wednesday, weather permitting, for a little flight training at SimCom, followed by an upgrade of the GPS’s on the plane in Venice, Florida which I hope will occur the following Monday and Tuesday.
