RJTT/PHNL

Post by alan CXA651 »

Hi.
Today based on yesterdays oil consumption , decided to try the direct flight from RJTT to PHNL , on starting the engines 3 and 4 , which was hard to start them , all engines where in excellent shape , but after starting the engines 3 and 4 have gone from excellent to good , so engine ware is now starting to take hold.
Well i made it to PHNL direct from RJTT , tail winds of over 100knts as i left japan , this hampered the climb , which in turn ment more oil consumed on climb to fl270 , winds died down a little the further out to sea i got , but still had tail winds of about 20 knots on average , landing was not one of my best , no applause from cabin no compliment from co pilot .
The engines have at long last started to deteriorate , at cold/dark all where excellent , engs3/4 turned good after a bad eng startup , engs 1/2 turned good at shutdown.
Also wage increased after this flight.
