4. "RE: ANNOUNCEMENT - VPC Flight Rally..."
10-13-02, 19:42z 

Hi James,

> If I'm right <LOL> then BST 20:00 is 19:00 UTC/Zulu

If BST means "British Summer Time", that is your current
time, I assume that is true.

Unfortunately I have just done the flight and entered the
chatroom this evening to find that nobody was in there.
After waiting some time, I eventually detected, that
somebody has cancelled the event in the special announcement
window just this morning. However, I ignore the announcement
window most of the time.

May I suggest that you add an additional posting in the
message area when this occurs again? Thanks.

Anyway, here is my flight report:

I went from Munich to Ferihegy in a Tradewind Domestic
Mailservice Cessna Caravan with takeoff around 17:40h local
time from runway 26R and landed at Budapest around 2 hours
later. Sun was still shining at takeoff time when I headed
for 18,000 ft cruise altitude at 130 KIAS, but on ILS
landing at runway 31R it was already dark night, it had a
little bit of light rain and the airport didn't pop up
through the clouds until getting very close.

The machines (both the 'puter and the airplane <g>) were
running very smoothly even on this old P-II-450 thanks to
the additional 256 MB RAM now inside.

RadarContact did its ATC job very well too, I had some
traffic on the way and one crossing restriction. And they
didn't claim back my virtual flying license although I had
to ask them to repeat some of the controlling instructions
and at least once shortly deviated from the flightpath <bg>.

Best regards,

Guido
