Excel is coming! Excel is coming!

Busy day out of KLAS today. Had I believe about 5 Excel guys departing out and thankfully I got out in front of them. :)

Yea, I dropped in on the live map to see three flowing into KLAS...nice spacing work by the controller.

They sure have been busy:

I would like to sync up with them in my slower turbo prop...see how that mix works, lol I likely would just get vectored way out while the super tubes get to blast by.

Saw Ty departing Vegas for the Beach (takeoff was just a little bit wobbly ;) )! Partly posting this to show off my 20 knot gusting crosswind landing... Didn't cheat and use the ILS.... Nope... I'm a good pilot...

Some good grouping tonight lol...

I was going to be there around that time, had planned a DC3 flight out that way but got pulled away. Came back to close everything down and saw this set of darts pointing at KLAS :shock:

@Nelson
Landing and departing was a bit rough in Vegas last night that's for sure. That takeoff in particular I had some issues, but managed to make it out :). Looks like you were nice and smooooooth though.

@bob
Peter had some fun with us. All four of us ended up arriving within a few minutes (even Josh!).

Another busy night. Joe was flying the 717, but apparently I lack a certain line of magic code, so he's in an American Livery...
