Look's like St Johns To Santa Maria In The Morning

Yah, I'm not so sure what you would do if you went in the drink. Make sure yah got some "minis" with yah to take away the pain of the frightful look of some big waves while your on that raft or some grayish looking fins circling around yah there. I know that you take that into consideration but if it really happend, Diesel does raise a good point...WHO is going to come and fish you out? Kinda like flying a caravan or a single engine plane over the Amazon. You go down there and thats all she wrote. At least in the Atlantic, you might stand a slightly better chance.....not much though.

Looking at your track it looks like you did a 180 and then flew for a bit with another 180.

What happened?

This is one of those situations where somebody manages to get by without getting hurt or killed and laughs all the while thinking that it's really no big deal.

My friend, especially if the above was true about you having a family, you're are playing with fire(and ice). The rest of the world are not necessarily wimps...what does that make you?

Getting in the shower can be deadly. As can Russian Roulette. Just because both CAN kill you, doesn't mean the odds of getting killed are the same for either. It also doesn't mean there aren't things you can do to mitigate those risks.

The cavalier attitude you express on here towards these great risks you're taking and narrow escapes causes some on here with more experience concern for your long term future. Yes, the saying goes "judgment comes from experience, and experience comes from bad judgment" but it seems as if you're missing the link between the two steps, in LEARNING from your bad judgment in the past.

Good luck, and when that runs out, I hope your client's airplane is well insured.

If you had a inch of icing over the North Atlantic in a non turbo piston single, you were in a situation you should not have been in. You were just lucky the icing did not continue, you could have been in a bad situation quickly.
Every year there are ferry pilots that are not heard from again, and the ocean became their grave.


If you make any stops in Bamako Mali, I can set you up with people to take care of you there, a good group of South Africans I know there.

Avoid Nigeria at all costs, even an emergency landing there will get you in prison if you didnt have permission to land there.
