RobertVA Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: "Ideas for May 2 0200z Multiplayer?" 04-26-04, 23:56z  I have one. I want to see if anyone else has any suggestions though. To make the destination within an hour on my plan, a pilot would need a prop that could operate at or above 150 knots. The DC-3 behaved quite nicely last weekend. It doesn't seem to be as prone to tipping over during taxi as the Piper J3. I did have to steer with diferential braking (F11 & F12) AND use the outside brake to straighten back out. The DC-3's speed is close enough to the Barron's to fly with them too. The vintage radios and navigation gear are... interesting. Of couse I had the "handheld" GPS along. I actually made a round trip, atarting and landing at Vancouver. I did spot an odd looking white spot on a hillside north or the Victoria VOR. The mark looked like an upside down V pointing in the general direction of Vancouver. I don't know if it represents some sort of old VFR landmark or some sort of artifact from the scenery generation process. I may fly that area again and get a screen capture.
