DCA World Rally Leg 7: Iloilo (RPVI) to Nonoc, Philippines (RP13)

[ddavid 149]

Well, here we go again with the DCA World Rally. This is Leg 7 - a medium length flight of 192 miles in the middle of the day, from Iloilo (RPVI) to Nonoc (RP13) in the Philippines. This is the Flight Plan from Plan-G (Thanks again, Tim):

Departing Iloilo - gear going up:

Turning to 111 degrees for Negros:

This is Barcolod airport:

The island of San Crlos:

Lapu Lapu airport:

This is the island of Limasawa:

Making the turn at the SU NDB:

Nonoc in sight - gear down:

Short-ish Final:

And we're on the tarmac at RP13:

The screen shots make it look an uneventful flight, but given the distances between the islands and the somewhat inhospitable terrain, it was edge of the seat stuff. Not to mention the dead-reckoning navigation at the start... (I said "Not to mention the dead-reckoning navigation at the start! - Ed)

Flight Time was 78 minutes with 116 gallons of Fuel used.

Next Leg is from Cambelstown - Right Jimmie!

Cheers - Dai.

Uneventful? I saw you turn left at least once, not to mention that dead reckoning at the start, fabulous

Nice post Dai, I enjoyed it.

Cheers
