Keith,
Exactly! I'll be flying the TEC route tonight requesting it from the controller.

Should be fun! See you all there!

I am will be on TeamSpeak from now through the fly in for those that want to be on TS while flying the fly-in!

Hope to see you there!

Have fun!

Who'd like to go first on the debrief?

Btw, I was not aware that Stevie Wonder had resumed his duties as Czar of the Navigation Department, or that Hellen Keller had been promoted to Minister of Chart Management Chart Management and Top of Descent planning. I will distribute the memo as expeditiously as possible.

Don't feel too bad, I think there must've been a full moon...a gentleman in a Falcon who is normally a rock solid participant on the network executed a beautiful landing at the wrong airport WHILE ESTABLISHED ON THE ILS (wasn't flying in the event, btw).

Oh, and if anyone is interesting in purchasing the radials involved in the LAX Coastal Route, they're available and are in BRAND NEW CONDITION. Not a scratch on 'em.

Ok, in hindsight, who'd like to go second?

All kidding aside, thanks for flying everyone, it was entertaining, hopefully educational, and it all worked out in the end.

[Garrett Waterbury]

Okay, (head hanging) I guess I'll go next...

Had a great time this evening, and hope we haven't driven the controllers to excessive drinking!

[Keith Smith]

It's only because I consider everyone involved on tonight's event a friend that I would enjoy some artistic license in the post, in case anyone's concerned

Oh, I can't wait to listen to the PE ATC recordings for last night.

Perhaps the fly-in participants could post the PEAware URL's for their flights - or at least their call signs - so the rest of us can use the event as a learning (and entertainment ) opportunity....?

[Keith Smith]

Cyrus, PEaware has a 'city pair' search capability. The event was from OXR to WHP, then continued from WHP to SNA.

lol! Last night was so much fun! Thanks for everyone who came out. Fun flying, and a lot of laughs as well.

Ok, for the record the LAX radials DID get a little bit of a workout..

I present exhibit A:

Just don't ask me to do any kind of pattern work. rofl How many mistakes did I make just doing closed traffic? Yeah, maybe I should do about 100 touch and go's this weekend.

Keith, sorry about the IFR/VFR mistake, normally I say it! I swear! lol It's actually a bit more challenging to fly with the TeamSpeak voice channel on to split your attention. lol

Anyhow, thanks again SO much for everyone who attended and made this fly-in so successful! Please drop a line in the forums with a suggestion for next week and we'll do it again!
