Remarks: I call this the North Caribou Circle.  Starts at North Caribou,
just out of Prince George.  I followed Hwy 16 to Prince Rupert.  Inside
passage to Bella, Coola. Then Hwy 20 over to Williams Lake.  Followed Hwy 97
North through Prince George back to North Caribou.

Remarks:  The high light of this flight was flying up the Skeena River from
Bella Bella to Bella Coola.  What a canyon.  With the Stearman you not only
fly close to the roses, but you could smell them to. <BG>

R. Hoot Hooten,09-22, KDAL to KHOU, Navy R4D, 1.98, bgas016, I just recieved my R4D CD, last week and I could not resist any longer, just had to take the wonderful lane on a short flight.  So my hat is off to the guys who made this great old airplane come alive in real live and on the FLTSIM.

Tom Steadman, 09-23, EGLC - EPWA, Supermarine Nighthawk, 14.40, bgas010, And now for something Completely Differnet as Monty Python would say.

49 Knts leaving 8 Gals of the orginal 200 Gals of fuel, Nice aircraft, shame they could have not found a new use for it.

First time I tried this at 60 Kts ran out of fuel a few KM's from Warsaw so this was my sendon try, It actually ran out of fuel and landed on its own using the auto pilot set to the cruise hight of 5500 Ft. Very nice.

R. Hoot Hooten,09-25, KNEW to KBFM, DC-3, 1.90, bgas016, A short flight, but I set real weather, knowing that the gulf coast today is in the middle of a big storm.  At takeoff from KNEW wind was 120 at 40 and heavy rain.  Very interesting just taxing, and the takeoff.  LOL when the wheels came off the runway I moved sideways 20'.  Climbed to 3000' was in clouds from around 1000, flew IFR all but about 20 mintues of the flight. 15 miles from KBFM I let down and at 1200 was out of the overcast.  Heavy rain, but winds only 30 from 120, easier landing with out a cross wind.  LOL

 

Tom Steadman, 09-25, EGLC - EPWA, HP 0/400 Civil Version, 7.92, bgas010, Trying my repaint and Curt Mays new airfile that he adjusted for me because it did not convert well from FS5 to FS98. Flys a lot better now. Aircraft owned by Imperial Airlines as 12 seat passenger G-EATN.

 

Simon Brooks, 09-26, CAR203, DC4, 0.43, bgas019, First shuttle flight for BGA... uneventful!
