Lots of virtual westjet flights...

The last few days I've been doing a lot of flying for virtual westjet doing CYOW-CYHZ then CYHZ back to CYOW. I am trying to make it farther east so I did CYHZ to KEWR then KEWR to CYXU then CYXU to CYXE which is where I just landed at recently then I started up the old -600 and am now heading to CYZF where I will call it a day...been taking a lot of shots the most of the flight..I'll try to upload them here soon.. The sun is going down where I am and I'm just playing some wii while I wait for it to get near CYZF then I'll take over and land the aircraft...until then I can sit and play some wii games as well.. Happy flying all other Flightsim pilots

Been a while... Will have more screens coming

Sorry about the delay on this but I thought that I'd get you all updated on where I am at the current moment. As I sit here and blog I am flying a dc-8 from nffn to Phnl Hawaii and I'm about an hour and a half out of Honolulu and will be arriving shortly, flying with cp air virtual is great and allows people like me to fly 70's and 80's aircraft like the 737-200 and the dc-8 as well. Lately I've been trying to finish off the mckenzie valley run back to Yellowknife but coming in from each and every angle doesn't seem to work so I emailed the CEO of the va and told him to remove the last few flights do I can start doing the scheduled ykf-yay morning and evening flights... I tried to do a westjet flight the other day all the way from KLAS (las Vegas) to CYYZ (Toronto) but I got 3/4 of the way there and decided I wanted to do something different, next time it'll be to calgary or Vancouver, I did a flight today with ozark, KSTL to KIND in the DC9 and it went smoothly and whole I was c,earning my room vacuuming and etc I thought maybe it's time to start with the Hawaii flight so I hope I la d soon, I'm not sure I like flying over oceans during the day anymore... Other va's I have not considered but may later tomorrow or Sunday. That's it, at least for now the big 3 or 4 vas that I fly for most often.. The next installment of this blog will include some images, mostly flight sim as this blog is totally revolving around it...so I'll talk to you later...when I'm down...only about 30 mins or so...

Buffalo At Noon!!

Short Story: A day with Buffalo

Idea taken from one of Ice Pilots NWT episodes, and is still a WIP. The peoples named in the list are all members of a flightsim forum i go to alot.

Read this post In the voice of the Ice pilots NWT narrator guy

"In hay river, on a hot summer day, buffalo joe wants the sched flight to go but is behind by half an hour. Joe isnt happy. He speaks with new ramp hand Darren Elliott in a stern but not angry way "we need to get that flight going soon eh?" says joe. "Roger that well be leaving shortly". Mikey comes to speak with Rampy Darren and let him know he has passenger waiting in the termninal, and he cant keep them waiting any longer.

Passenger list for BFL FL168...

adamb
loperzok
tindog
pedmond
American
Ragtopjonny
smutley
Tigisfat
Jskorna
drobson
Neils Anderson
daspinal
and the rest is cago

Meanwhile outside the dc-3, Rampy Darren and Captain Jeremy are running through the preparations for their shed run. Darren makes sure that the DC-3 is ready to fly and he gives captain the thumbs up and that passengers are waiting. He radio's mike to say "send them out to the plane".

The passengers are ready for their flight to Yellowknife and hop on board the aircraft, even though darrens only a rampy, hes been allowed to take the afternoon off and fly with the sched run to hay river. And since there are no more flight attendants on buffalo flights as they are all on strike. So darren takes over on their duties, making sure the seats are in the right position and where the doors are etc etc...

Darren sits the the jumpseat as the plane departs hay river for yhellowknife which is already behind by more than half an hour now..

Just before lining up on landing for runway 33, Captain Jeremy Dow calls Rampy darren up to the cockpit and Capt Jeremy mentions to him that "youre going to land this thing, itll be tricky, as you have real people on board not cargo, if cargo moves around there should be lots of stuff in the boxes that will prevent if from breaking but with people its different, their lives are about to be in your hands".

Darren seats himself in the co-pilot seat and clears his chest and checks out the controls

Jeremy:"Ok were coming up on 10 miles from the runway lower the gears"
Darren: "Roger that, lower the gear"....."Gears down and locked"
Jeremy:" Ok now ill give you controls"...."You have controls"
Darren:Roger that I have Controls..."



Darren takes the controls and flys it like hes been doing it for a long time "hint hint".

Darren:" Yellowknife tower buffalo alpha victor oscar requesting landing clearance, over"
Yellowknife tower: Roger that cleared to land, winds are calm, 5 knots at NW time is 20:00Z Over"
Darren:Roger that cleared to land.

Darren lowers the flaps, 10, 20, 30, 50 and prepares for landing. As he lands the aircraft he stays horizontal for a few seconds and lowers the rear to put the tailwheel in place. He then passes the controls back to Jeremy.

Darren:"You have the controls"
Jeremy:I have the controls"

Jeremy then taxiis in the DC-3 at Yellowknoife, to the Buffalo hangar at the other end of the airport. Jeremy Opens the back door with a switch in the cockpit and the passengers get out, one takes a photo, the rest head in to beat the 25 degrees in the sun..

When jeremy and darren hop out of the plane buffalo joe is there to greet them, hes not happy, "Why was the aircraft half an hour late?" he asks "we cant have that these people are waiting. I dont care if there were issues with the plane, those passengers have to get to their destination witrhout delay.


To be continued.....
