Angel Top of the World - details

Hi CYHeli

Mission dependent......all the ultra high altitude stuff I do in the b3+ otherwise it's what ever you can carry in the Jettie. Season also depended, maybe 40B3+/60JetBox

Happy Landings

Namaste VF

You've been off freq for a long time VF and I hope that all is well and that you can give everyone an "ops normal" call soon.

I hope that you and the missus are having a holiday somewhere nice and there is nothing more sinister for your silence. I (and I am sure that many other PPRuNeRs) wish you well.

Happy landings.....
