Yep. Banning Pass. Gets quite windy there. In real life there are acres and acres of wind generators there. It's going to be interesting to see what FS has.

Consider flying outbound on a SMO radial and joining a POM radial inbound until you cross. You can avoid LAX Class B that way.

Considering the weather has been clearing up, and there's a lot to see on this flight, taking it slower might be a treat.

See above.

Ah, don't speak too soon! :)

I'll leave that up to you. Either works for me.

Thanks!
