Northwest Regional Airport Terrace-Kitimat CYXT → Stewart Aerodrome CZST

What a dramatic light today! At least for the first half of the flight. After that, it got hazier and darker with much less contrasts.

Stewart Aerodrome is approached visually and sits in a valley, so there’s not much room for the turn after the downwind. The Vision Jet probably isn’t one of the usual aircrafts seen here ;-)

Port Hardy CYZT → Bella Bella (Campbell Island) CBBC

A flight at dusk, which just barely ended in time in Bella Bella (I like this name!).

The runway wasn’t lit, and in the worst case, I would have had to turn back to Port Hardy, but everything worked out fine.

Just made my first gear up belly landing in my #Xplane #flightsim #Cirrus SF50 Vision jet on RWY 08 at KDEN. Haven't flown in a while, fair amount of distractions tonight. I did however make it off into the grass so the airport and runway remains open.

Pretty sure it will buff out. No pics, you can imagine what carbon fiber sliding along asphalt at 100 kts might look like. (Hamburger).

Now to call the boss.

Del Norte County KCEC → Rogue Valley International-Medford Airport KMFR

This leg again? Yep, another short test flight, in the Cirrus Vision Jet again. But the real focus? Testing the Map Enhancement Plugin for X-Plane. The scenery looks so much better with it!

Next stop? Not sure yet. But Portland, OR is just 200 nautical miles away! Rumor has it there are some amazing breweries there…

Rogue Valley International-Medford Airport KMFR → Del Norte County KCEC

Back in California for a short test flight in the Vision Jet. The next flight will take me further to the north, promise!

Charles M. Schulz–Sonoma County KSTS → Shelter Cove 0Q5

In the end, I had to hurry a bit as the runway in Shelter Cove isn’t lit, and daylight was running out.

Palm Springs International KPSP → Catalina KAVX

It's new plane day! With the Cirrus Vision SF50, I'm heading back to the Pacific Coast from Palm Springs. The sky kept getting cloudier, so a few planned views unfortunately didn’t happen. Better weather is forecast for tomorrow!
