Has the site been going down???? The past two nights i've try to log this last flight but could not log in to acars or find the website the next day it seem to be fine???? Does not seem like a big deal but i'm without internet so ive had to drag my pc over to a friends to try to finish up the B200... Im on my phone Writing this. When i was forced to move out by my renter for renovation on my house i had two flights left got one logged a few days ago just fine.. Although it prob the worst flight i've ever logged...... The last flight Friday night couldn't get acars to work at all or find the website the Saturday had acars working was on the website this was around 7:00 east coast time. Flew the flight stated to descend fsx crashes... Still log on to acars reflew the flight just alil after i reached the halfway point the acars started givin me a 404 Error. I finished the flight just fine even had a nice landen rate too -49 then stop the flight go to file the prep error somthing about not finding the URL so sure enough jump on the web can not find the sit... Im sorry for the bit of rant just want to share my nightmare of a weekend .............

You've had quite a time of it Brian.

I've been extremely busy of late and got behind the event so I plan on having a re-cap of the event posted later today. Badges will also be added to those who finished. Thanks to all who participated.

Hello ERA Pilots!

Well, the May Madness Around Alaska Challenge is in the books! We had 13 pilots take part in this event with 7 out of those 13 having completed at least one full route of 19 legs! Near as I can figure, Taliani Davide, ERR850, was the first one to finish 19 legs followed by Dave Maze, ERR483, second, and then Hussam Elgammel, ERR820, third, Bruno Ferrriera, ERR271, fourth, then Steve McCoy, ERR110, at fifth, Cameron Gleichman, ERR247, sixth and finally Brian Ritz, ERR227 in seventh.

Again, this was not a race but I thought some useless empirical data may be of interest to some of our pilots.

Continuing, the last man to sign up was Jermey Crook, ERR752. Wayne Joyner, ERR981 was out there as was Etienne Brodier, ERR120. Etienne seemed to like the same routes as he flew several of them repeatedly Dave Maze, ERR483, came out smokin and then just fell by the wayside with a total of 20 flights. Hussam had the most with 21 flights. Others who participated were James Merson, ERR472, Victor Martinez, ERR735, and Jack Graham, ERR508.

Brian Ritz got his final flight in on the last day after what must have been a total nightmare in reading his post. Don't ya just love our computers when they go rogue

We're cookin up some more great flight adventure for ya so stay tuned as the ERA EVENTS SKUNK WORKS once again attempts to dazzle you with brilliance but probably only baffled you with BS!!!!!!

Thanks! Era Events Staff
