The Yanks are Coming! - Leg 02 - Friday 16-Jul-21

Post by Paughco »

Fellow Misfits: I've got some vintage WW2 GI Jive going on my computer https://archive.org/details/AfrsG.i.Jiv ... Parade.mp3, and have the mood set for planning our second flight on our mission to Europe. I can't take credit for planning these missions anyway; I just got them from Gypsy Baron. This route is the same route flown by many USAAF crews on their way to Fortress Europe. The only difference is that we have a few extra stops to accommodate our preferred flying times.

Here is the overall route, as shown in SkyVector: https://skyvector.com/?ll=54.9195656219 ... GCL%20EGUL.

Next Friday we'll fly our B-17s from Gander Intl (CYQX) to Goose Bay (CYYR), the second leg of an 8-leg trip that will take us across the Atlantic Ocean via Greenland, Iceland, and to RAF Lakenheath (EGUL) in England. Note: I had to change our final destination from Gypsy's route because it no longer exists in 2021.

Here's the Skyvector representation of our second flight, designated TYAC 02: https://skyvector.com/?ll=51.1800316856 ... YAY%20CYYR.
Preferred aircraft is the Boeing B-17. Bring a long-legged warbird if you don't have a 'Fort.

Meet at: 1730z for a 1800z departure.

Meet on: Digital Theme Park on JoinFS.

Comms through A2A Discord channel.

Local takeoff time: 1100.

Weather: historic, set for 1100, July 16, 2021.

I'll post the LNV flight plan on Discord. Hey - what's the worst that can happen?
