Gents,
EV Simpilot is getting married, so he's taking a couple weeks off. We wish him congratulations!!

If you’re interested, I’ll keep the tradition, and suggest a group flight in EV’s absence for WUS.
Please give me your feedback though so I know we’re a go.
I posted same on PE Discord.

Description:
That said… The stress is LESS beginners, and more VOR nav and airbourne tight FORMATION. Let’s get wing to wing, if we can, then spread out for the T/G waypoints.

SkyVector:

The Flight:
Keeping the general format that EV has been guiding us thru:
1.) 8am PDT / 15:00 Zulu - Initial Briefing at Discord Briefing Room #1.
2.) We boot up at Happy Camp 36S (CTAF 122.9), line up and depart rapid fire,
3.) Climb and maintain 7500msl, 110 knots GROUND SPEED,
4.) Tune VOR FJS (109.6) and intercept the 120 radial on the OBS, and fly to the station,
5.) In flight air-to-air is the same 122.75, see how tight we can get,
6.) Same FJS VOR (109.6), pass the station, fly the outbound 150 radial for about 28mi to Trinity O86 (122.9),
7.) In flight air-to-air is the same 122.75, see how tight we can get,
8.) Trinity; enter the RIGHT DOWNWIND for RWY 32, full-stop/taxi-back,
9.) Depart Trinity and VFR follow the Trinity Lake south to Weaverville O54,
10.) Weaverville is a touch and go, then,
YOUR CHOICE:
11.) - Hyampom H47 (122.8) non-towered, head 240 for 26mi,
OR,
12.) - Redding RDD - PE ATC TOWERED, tune VOR RDD (108.4) by the 102 radial, of course standard Class D entry with ATIS, CT, etc.
13.) Debriefing at Discord Briefing Room #1.

Flight Features:
This run offers a little of everything; Mountain flying and spectacular views, lakes, VFR and VOR nav inbound and outbound, formation, pattern entry, and your choice of arrival towered or non-towered.

Anybody wanna join?
