Hi Robert,>Both Routes are interesting to me. Let's fly one February

>as to which flight we do which week. Maybe later on we
>could start at Catalina!
Been reading along with interest recently, trying to get up the nerve to figure out the RW, flight rooms Etc and join in one of these weeks.
I have actually been spending a lot of time in the last month or so looking for a suitable Spitfire to add to the VPC FS2004 Hangar for these flights. Still looking for the right one, for one reason or another, while PL965 vII is still in the engineering hangar.
Is it right that you all are flying the P-38 on these Saturday flights? I gave it a few test flights last month and it is a good aircraft, fun to fly.
The main reason why I chimed in was when you mentioned starting from Catalina. On a plan from Catalina, don't forget to incorporate the SFRA over LAX into the flight. I have piloted the SFRA both in Flight Simulator and the real world, and it adds a touch of class to any Flight Plan, in my opinion.
