00:02I'm not sure, it's one of the many rivers in the area, but we are just, we are crossing
00:09all, coming up on Pennsley intersection, alright, so that's that behavior that I kind of used
00:16to, it goes to the left, and then it goes to the right.
00:33And so this is where we are now, we just crossed over to Pennsley, Pennsley intersection, now
00:44Pennsley, we're, I mentioned about the neighbor down station Pensacola earlier, and that's
01:00home of the Blue Angels, and it's a large Navy base, and I don't think we can see it, it's
01:13going to be off on our, where are we, I can't see it here, sometimes we can zoom in on
01:26flight
01:26sounds.
01:37So this Whiting Field, this is where it's at, and based on our position here, it should
01:44be at about our, one o'clock, so let's see if we can see that bad boy.
01:53So I'm going to pan to the right, and I'm going to zoom in.
02:01Hey, I think we see it, look, yep, pretty sure that's it, yep, one of those, that's those
02:14two, remember we saw those two together?
02:16There's two separate bases, one there, one there, two separate airfields.
02:24I'm going to zoom out and get a perspective.
02:32So the one that we want to see, let me see, that's the one that's on the left, so the
02:42one
02:42that we zoomed in on, that was it, that was, that's the neighbor down station Pensacola.
02:54You see how you have one there, and you have one here, this is the one that Blue Angels
02:58are at.
03:38That was, uh, quite a view.
03:56And, as you can see, we have our clouds all around us, and, um, we've got something
04:05coming ahead, it looks like it may be our altitude.
04:32Yeah, we have some clouds ahead, kind of keeping an eye on them, let me see what it looks like
04:37on the chart.
04:38All right, so this is the base, a little closer, we're treating a little bit.
04:44Um, we're at 3,500 feet.
04:56Uh, below 35, nothing says you can't go below 35.
04:59If, uh.
05:01If, uh.
05:01If, uh.
05:02If, uh.
05:27If, uh.
05:43If, uh.
05:47If, uh.
05:48If, uh.
05:53If, uh.
05:56If, uh.
05:58You can start out on flight sim, you can check all these things out.
06:01Way back in the day, it was, uh, it was impossible to do, uh, what we're doing now.
06:08Um, you know, um, there was no, doing VFR, doing, uh, VFR on the flight sim was, uh, unheard
06:19of.
06:19Uh, and the airlines, they had like a black and white screen.
06:24I had the opportunity to fly, uh, took advantage of an opportunity in the Navy to fly a Navy P
06:30-3
06:30simulator.
06:32And, um, that was, you know, right up there with the airline, full motion, full scale simulator.
06:40But it's, um, it's come a long ways.
06:46This, what you're seeing here, actually rivals what, what they had.
06:50Uh, it's just a matter of, uh, like the gear, the real sim gear.
06:54They've done a good job replicating the, uh, equipment.
06:57On that flight sim I was telling you about, they actually, um, use real aircraft parts.
07:06And, um, and they made them work in the flight sim.
07:09A lot of those instruments can.
07:10Pressure instruments.
07:12It's just a matter of hooking it up to a, um, uh, system.
07:18Like, I guess you could use a, uh, a Duino or a Raspberry.
07:22And, um, it calculates the thing, the airspeed indicator or altimeter.
07:27Um, you put in, uh, altimeter setting.
07:31And it's gonna, you know, if you, if it plugs in, if you know, if it can go online or
07:37whatever,
07:37you get the correct information, atmospheric information.
07:41And, uh, it knows how much air to blow in, how much pressure to blow in to those instruments
07:47to get them to read accurately.
07:56That's some pretty interesting things.
07:58I've done some research on it, but it was beyond my skill.
08:02Beyond my, uh, the scope of my knowledge for that time.
08:26We should be, uh, coming up on two.
08:31True.
08:33Yeah, not yet.
08:36We must have a headwind.
08:39Let's see what we got here.
08:42So we're moving pretty fast.
08:44Uh, actually, we don't have a, we don't appear to have a headwind.
08:49True airspeed is, uh, indicated it's 142.
08:59And there I go again, talking and not showing you what I'm talking about.
09:03Oh, this is interesting.
09:12That's that mean looking cloud I was wondering about earlier.
09:40So we seem to be good at 3000, so we'll keep it here.
09:49Got lots of greenery there after, uh, after being, uh, over the deserts for the, uh, large portion
09:57of the trip.
09:58Uh, all the way through, uh, Texas.
10:01And we hit, um, Louisiana.
10:03And it started changing.
10:04I started coming out of Texas, uh, towards Louisiana.
10:07It started changing up.
10:17Yeah, the farmland is still pretty.
10:19Uh, but it, it doesn't contrast, it doesn't contrast like the, uh, like it does on the desert floor.
10:29heruming is, uh, .
10:58Yeah, the farmland has so much is left inside.
11:13Oh, what did I forget to do, that fuel, okay, so I got that fuel imbalance thing I'll tell
11:26you about, I need my, you know, I literally need a timer for this here, so let me see, I'm
11:32going to turn it off, but I'm looking here, it does give you an indicator that the fuel
11:39transfer is on, now I'm turning it off, but let's see the damage that I've done, at least
11:45it's taken up from the right tank now, so the left, the left tank, is where the, that's
11:50the one that was drawn, the engine was drawn fuel from, and so I switched tanks, I mean,
11:59no, I didn't switch tanks, I wish you could.
