Not exactly apples to apples, but believe it or not, even in the Herc with 4 engines, we had the same problem if anti-ice was active in the decent or if we where trying to slow down so we could dirty up. Only we didn’t have speed brakes.

Yeah man…ran the numbers and it all looks good. We have a really cool iPad app that calculates all kinds of weather and runway contamination factors.

No. It looks more like June… Only darker.
July is the only month of the year when it is safe to do the heavy maintenance on the snow removal equipment.

That’s very fighter-like going down the chute with the boards out. I don’t recall ever doing that. We still had boots on the old Citation II I used to fly. That might explain it. As an old gf’s mom used to say, “you’re doin’ the Lord’s work” out there Beach!

Thanks to all that post, and continue to post, in this topic. One thing that honestly surprised me about being part of Mudspike was how enjoyable it is to see the diverse places and things we all get up to.

How are the slopes up there?
Apparently they were great up until today…but now it’s raining cats and dogs…
Took a short trip out to the west coast of Japan with my ancient film camera.

I’ve been slowly getting back into photography again and editing RAW files, it’s been a decade since I’ve done RAW editing and a bit shorter since I really used my old camera a lot.
I used to have a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ-8, now I’ve got a DMC-FZ-300. What a world of change! Mostly got a bridge camera to save on weight and have a lot of options when out and about on my motorcylce
