Hi folks:
Another quick visit, from the hotel room telephone connection.
Thanks for your continued input and comments. One thing I must clarify and correct, though, and straight away: I read just now, on skimming through to keep updated, that someone wrote that my QXC was my first solo nav. This is not correct, it wasn't and I did not say that it was. It was my second - please see original post to this thread. I think whoever it was has perhaps mis-read my posting/s.
You know, whether you believe me or not (and I am very grateful to those who do, which I think seems to be most of you) the important thing here for me is that you think that what occurred to me is pretty astonishing and hence the reason for disbelief. That, in itself - when I step back from the earlier feeling of being a bit miffed - is of great value, since it shows what should not be happening.
I have no intention of leaving PPRuNe, don't worry! You are all, I feel, a good bunch of folks at heart. And, just look at the energy and enthusiasm that you throw at a thread...!
Thanks again, and I'll respond more when I am back at base again.
TP
