From Bill Odell
Imperial Airways
For several years now I have been
interested in Imperial Airways and its many interesting aircraft. Allan Lowson has played a huge part in my
becoming interested in Imperial, by feeding me tons of information, research
leads, stories etc.. This has resulted
in my putting together the routes of this airline so that you can enjoy the
challenges of flying in the thirties with a minimum of instrumentation and
navaids. I am presently flying all of
these routes and flights. Starting with
August, I will be submitting these routes periodically for you to enjoy as
well. I am writing this to see if you
have the interest or comments on this endeavor.
I must add here that all of the aircraft that Imperial flew during this
period are on AVSIM for FS 2004. Let me
hear from you.
Best,
Bill Odell
From the C.E.O.
Thanks to all
of the pilots who flew the “Caribbean Jaunt”.
I flew most of the legs with Bill Hendrix bgas046 on BushNet. Coleman Green bgak006 also joined us for a
few.
