The starting time can be a bit late.
For people in Europe is at least 10PM and even much later, just to start.

For people in America is past noon or so, and that means taking the whole day off.

Is it possible to consider a little earlier? maybe 19UTC?
The date is fine otherwise.

I think I can make it on a Lineage 1000 :P... I'll confirm later.

Kind regards, Vincent


Hi Vincent.

He actually meant CYLT-BGTL.

That's the route proposed by the first day, by Falcon
We are looking forward to 367nm, around 50 min at 0.81Ma

Ah good, that is not far 365nm, so not much fuel needed. I can take the 777-200 off that icy rw.

Kind regards, Vincent

That's a shame. You would have brought some personality to the event! Sorry that you cant make it.

Okay, it will be a last minute decision for me, but just in case, either the Lineage or the Jumbolino or ... hummm, haven't flown a C-5 in a while?
