WestWind Airlines

After a couple of years plus effort I have finally and honestly reached category 5. Now that I am able to have a 747 I have been flying the wings off it relatively for me. Well rainy weather plus a bit of time off work and the kids somewhere else has helped.

 

Anyway I am filling it up at Lax for the return flight to Sydney, took a neat photo for my collection and am about to call the fuel truck to get going again.

Congrats Duncan!!! Its great to hear from you Sydney guys again! And welcome to the forum by the way! I'll be heading your way either next month or the month after. so I'm looking forward to seeing you all down in Sydney!

Thank you Eoin. I have just pulled back into the international gate in Sydney number 53 I think. The weather was better in LA, Sydney was wet and Yuk.

Anyway will stop flying for a bit as the kids are coming back again tomorrow plus I want to upgrade scenery and a few other jobs.

 

Cheers Duncan

 

 

 

Great job, Duncan. Congrats!!

Well done, Duncan!!!

I'd love to see more of our pilots here at YSSY put some more hours in whenever they can.  If anyone in YSSY needs some encouragement, I'm more than happy to wave some streamers, and blow the party whistles.

Thanks chief. I lost my original login details for the forum so I got around it by renaming myself with the "in Tassie" bit at the end. Had computer problems a few months back and had to wipe the drive and re-install windows, FS and about everything else. Being a shift worker and two young kids really wrecks my virtual career. Downloading some large new scenery now and it has about 6 and a half hours to go. Don't know if this old bucket of bolts will run it. It recomends twice the computer that I actaully have but I'll give it a crack.

I might set up a photo bucket account or similar now so that I can post photos and things in the forum from time to time.

Don't worry if you can't fly ALL the time, just as long as you hold onto the desire to fly, and do some hours whenever you have spare time, that's fine.

Also, If you ever forget your password or login details, just let me know as I have access to the hub records.

Thanks again. Actually I like my new forum log in. I am about to change ISP's so this one is tied to a gmail account which won't cause problems when I migrate.

No luck yet getting a custom avatar yet but I'll keep perservering

Don't get excited party-boy, I said "party whistles", not party.
