This is the one problem about those extra-long non-stop flights, you might have to land somewhere unexpected if fuel runs low.

"A Qantas flight from London to Perth has been forced to make an unexpected landing in a West Australian mining town after running into headwinds without enough fuel to complete its planned journey in one go.

"The 17-hour flight, QF10, was scheduled to land at Perth Airport at midday today, but instead diverted to Karratha Airport, about 1500 kilometres north in the Pilbara region."

Qantas flight forced to make remote landing after running into headwinds

The unexpected stop for the Boeing 787 Dreamliner in a remote West Australian mining town shows the challenges Qantas’ Project Sunrise could face.

Last night I flew back to Boston from Richmond. After we boarded the plane was stuck on the ground for 4 hours because of storms. Then when we landed in Boston, we couldn't get to the gate for another 1.5 hours because there were 7 other planes in front of us that had been diverted from New York because of bad weather. I didn't get home until 2:30am. 🫩 #boston #flying #travel #weather

C140 Cameron Park Visit

An opportunity came up on an SLSA aircraft as my next aeroplane. On paper, it met all my requirements: SLSA or ELSA or EAB, Rotax 912 ULS powered, taildragger, tandem seating, backcountry capable and with more payload, and shorter take-off than my C140.

Went over to a local farm store, and as a pilot, chuckled about the name.

I believe the owner's first name must be "Roger" and when the cashiers finish your transaction, they say "over and out."**

**not really.

Hyvän mielen uutinen perheestä, joka on vuoden 2018 IPCC-raportin jälkeen matkustanut vain maata pitkin. Tein itse silloin saman päätöksen. Tuttavapiirissä jatkuva lentely on edelleen normi. Ainoa muutos tapoihin on lentää Välimeren maihin alkukesästä, jolloin "ei vielä ole liian kuuma" 😬 Miten tuohon argumenttiin vastaisi?
