The pilots of the DVA Boeing 727 program cordially invite you to join us on a short flight over the Rocky Mountains, south to the high desert of beautiful New Mexico. It's often imitated, never duplicated, and the loudest event to wear widgets.

It's...TRIJET THUNDER II: Flight to the Sun!

Departing: Salt Lake City International Airport, Salt Lake City, UT (SLC/KSLC)
Arriving: Albuquerque International Sunport, Albuquerque, NM (ABQ/KABQ)
Departure Time: 1400 EST (1900Z), Saturday, 17 December 2005

Suggested Routing: FFU6.HVE GUP.CURLY2 -or- FFU6.HVE RSK TANER.CURLY2
DP: FAIRFIELD SIX
STAR: CURLY TWO

Please plan to log on and obtain clearance 30 minutes before departure. And please be patient with the controllers, they may be busy with us.

Any and all pilots are welcome, flying anything that you're rated for. Skywest (CRJ-700) and Southwest (737-300) fly this route in real life, but both airports are big enough to handle heavies.

This event will be up on the Online Events page as soon as I can get it up there. In the meantime, if you're planning to attend, please respond to this thread so I can get an indication of interest that I can pass on to the ZLC and ZAB ARTCCs.

See you in Salt Lake on Saturday!

I will be there but probably not in a 727. I'm going to take the Fleet 727 and do the same flight offline to see how I do.

Lewis, is this going to be on the Online Events page? Or is it just a "no sign up- go fly"?

Posted onPost created on December 14 2005 18:42 ET by Lewis Gregory

At this point, just c'mon and fly. This thread will stay sticky until Sunday, and I was slow and didn't get it to Andrew quickly. I'll send him the information so it might make it up on the events page.

Moral of the story for me: Plan better! smile

btw, I have a cold today, so I sound a little congested - hopefully I won't be sneezing and wheezing during radio calls, but I might not be participating much in voice chats ....
