P119 Tour of U.S. and Canadian Capitols, 12/11/2007 - On 7 Nov 07, I took off from Atlanta, GA with an earnest bunch of passengers in pursuit to visit all 60 U.S. and Canadian capitals. Throughout the 34 day trip, we flew through all kinds of weather and saw the best of North America. Before returning to Atlanta, I took them to our nation's capital in Washington D.C. as an extra treat for being so patient and being great customers. A total of 61 flights and logging 89 hours for this tour, I would highly recommend anyone trying this. Freedom is priceless, and having a front row seat at the world's largest IMAX served as the truest inspiration. God bless the U.S.A.! - and Canada too!

I told the passengers that they really didn't want to see Iraq, but they insisted. And, well... They paid good. I netted a whopping $38.40 on this trip in tips. You see, I flew them for free, but the memories and the souvenirs made this trip the best. Watch out for South American Chinchillas, they bite when you try to shave them! They do tend to taste like chicken though! :)

300 Executive Charter Flight Hours in One Year, 12/31/2007 - 393.4 Executive Charter Flight Hours in 2007
P002 U.N. World Tour, 11/12/2008 - Wow!! What a journey. The charter began 6 April 2007 and ended 11 December 2007 some 352.8 flight hours and 231 cities later!! This was an extremely good way to see some really strange and different scenery in FS9. Good weather, appallingly bad weather, rain, snow and storms all added to the tour. There were huge airports, really tough airports (Paro springs to mind) and airports with no parking. There were major sights (Rome, Niagra Falls, Greece, London etc) and strange scenery (long, narrow valleys in the middle of nowhere) There was snow on the ground (Fjords of Norway), deserts of Africa, jungles of South America, and the Himilayas. FS Pax in the last 1/4 of the tour gave extra challenges of bird strikes, flame outs, engines being shot out (twice), undercarriage and flap failures. Clocked up a few awards for big months, and got a big promotion halfway around the world. This took a lot of discipline to get done, but the longer you go the more you want to finish. Next tour will be in FSX, but no more UN tours. Time to put in some hours locally while visiting the hubs.

50 Hours in one month, 1/28/2007 - I have flown 51.7 hours SO FAR this month. I'm not sure how, but I've flown almost every day I've been off. Westwind is a blast and I'm loving it!
50 Hours in one month, 2/21/2008 - I have flown 52.9 hours in February. Amazing for such a short month!
25 Flights in one month, 2/28/2008 - I have flown a minimum of 25 flights this month, although the Flight Log Summary has just 25, and I've personally counted over 30 in my flight log.
100 Hours in one month, 2/29/2008 - I have flown 103 hours this month. A lot of days off and time enjoying a great hobby.
Longest WestWind Passenger Route, 3/11/2008 - I took the 787 to NZ and had an uneventful, but very long, flight. I might do it again but it will be awhile!

Lars Hulgreen, Senior Captain, KLAX

50 Hours in one month, 11/25/2007 - 52.5 hours of flying so far this month, including my transition training from CAT IV to CAT V. I also completed a very interesting trip from Los Angeles to Copenhagen. The entire trip was made up from WWA connecting flights and looked like this: KLAX/KSEA/KORD/KJFK/EGLL/EKCH, with the Trans Atlantic flight taking 7 hours.
25 Flights in one month, 11/27/2007 - Busy month this month between passenger flights, charter flights and transition training its a wonder that I have any hair left and quite amazing, the color still is as dark as it is .... one trip across the pond, quite a few passenger assignment, not to mention the start of a new adventure - Around the World on a charter for some rich kids. I was trying to check out a G5 for the trip but so far no luck, maybe I can get a short term lease somewhere? (FSX compatible) - with some luck should make the promotion to Senior Captain sometime during this trip - we will see....

P001 Flight Around the World, 1/20/2008 - First ever trip around the word - lots of plans and very exciting - however towards the end it too became little tedious - nonetheless, I started my endeavour on November 27, 2007 and finished it on January 20, 2008. Starting and ending in Los Angeles and celebrating Christmas at the Victoria Falls in Africa on the banks of the Zambezi River. New Years was spend diving in the India Ocean more exactly the Maldives, but not before we took a short detour to see the highest point in Africa, Mt. Kilimanjaro. Further to the east we visited Singapore, Manila, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Seoul & Tokyo. Since the season was on for Crab fishing we decided to make a short stop over in Dutch Harbor in the Aleutian Islands before heading towards Alaska and then south to California. During the trip I had the pleasure of receiving my promotion to Senior Captain, which was celebrated appropriately in Brazil - 25235 NM was the total distance flown I did not count the hours.

25 Flights in one month, 2/27/2008 - The fight in question was one leg of a two leg trip. This leg was from Casper, WY to Waldon, CO a distance of about 200 miles one way in a Fairchild Metroliner on a cargo trip. The weather was VFR conditions very favorable wind, and perfect landing for a grass strip runway. Even though the leg was 0.6 hours one way, it passed the 25 flighs in a month mark. Most of the trip were short hops, but the total mileage is now around 1000nm.

Steve Law, Senior Captain, KBOS

50 Hours in one month, 12/31/2007 - Just started with WestWind on Pearl Harbor Day. By the end of the month I had 80.7 hours. By the 6th of January 08 (technically one month from the start) I had 95 hours. Not quite enought to claim 100 hours for the month, but 50 hours is no sweat.
100 Hours in one month, 1/31/2008 - I didn't think I'd be putting in nearly this many hours this month. Then I dicovered and decided to embark on the quest of P119. And decided to do it in a Baron. That takes a lot of hours, especially the trip to Honolulu and back with a cavernous ferry tank. I haven't even come close to finishing P119 at this point, but I've managed to accumulate 134.9 hours since the beginning of the month. I'm having a great time on P119. The angled instrument approach to Juneau in marginal weather without an approach chart was particularly memorable.
P119 Tour of U.S. and Canadian Capitols, 2/11/2008 - Started this quest in the Beech Baron from KMDD and now we're back. Took 71 flights in 31 days. Flew 21194.9 nautical miles, 141.3 block hours, and burned 3238.87 gallons of 100LL (ferry tank for the Hawaiian legs). Quite an adventure, but the highlight was the low ceiling and visibility approach to Juneau with mountainous terrain close to the approach and the airport. What I thought was going to be an ILS turned out to be an approach on a localizer that was not lined up with the runway and had no glideslope...and I had no approach plate! Broke out high enough to see the approach lights, swing to the left to align with the runway extended centerline, and then swing back to the right to land on the runway. Having survived it, it was great fun. Not much ATC in the northern latitudes (or other traffic, for that matter, except for having to fly an extended downwind because of a 737 in the pattern ahead of me at Goose Bay at 1:00 am local), but P119 was still a great experience.

100 Hours in one month, 11/30/2007 - It was very challinging flying every time I could to lots of place from EHAM round trip to: TNCM, TNCA, ZMUB, NZAA, PHNL, LFPG, SBGL, KSEA and this is more then 100 hours using A332 and A343.

P001 Flight Around the World, 3/19/2008 - I completed my first round the world flight in the Boeing 707 as well as taking side trips in the Lear 45 and DHC-6 Twin Otter. The flight took exactly four months from 11/19/07 to 3/19/08. The main reason for this was that i wanted to allow my 12 passengers time to enjoy each stop. Over all I flew for a total of 63704 miles and had a total flight time of 125.9 hrs including side trips in Europe, Australia, and a trip to Dutch Harbor on Unalaska Island. For the main part of the flight the average flight time was 4.1 hours with flights ranging from 1.7 hours to 10 hours. We flew to some pretty interesting places and were extremely lucky in that we had no problems with any aircraft over the 37 legs.

Became re-aquainted with Vatsim and online flight in the process. Now I will need to become re-aquanted with my wife if she is still here somewhere...Sweetheart, Honey??
Longest WestWind Passenger Route, 12/16/2007 - Flew out of Amsterdam on 12/11/2007 for Aukland . Had a good bit of difficulty with company route published with dispatch. Route came out to over 26000 miles one way. I went back in to MSFS Flight planner and set the route to GPS Direct to Tokyo then High altitude airways to Aukland. I then keyed into PMDG FSC and was able to get the routes to agree that way. Had the same issue with the return flight but was able to set up a flight plan for the full flight coming back without any GPS Direct. Was certainly a long flight and took a sizable bite out of my vacation time that was otherwise spent shoveling snow. Gotta love New England. Any way it feels like an accomplishment but not sure if I have many more like this one in me. 20 hours each way is a very long trip!!!
P001 Flight Around the World, 12/28/2007 - Chicago - New York - Rome - Tokyo - Honolulu - LA - Chicago, 6 legs, 36.8 Hours. Flew corporate team to Rome for X-mas and then to Tokyo to conduct negotiations for Corporate take-over. Stopped in Hawaii to celebrate success then back home to Chicago. Stopped in LA to take possesion of a tiger skin that suddenly became available without legal strings, and the team did some clubbing. Then on home to the Windy (and Snowy) City.

Fred Weidemann, Command Captain, KIAD

P001 Flight Around the World, 12/7/2006 - It all started with an innocent flight from KIAD to KMSP on 10/25/2006 in a 737-700 flight time 2:15 and the thought occurred to me, instead of flying the return trip why don't I keep flying west until I end up back in my fine home Hub, KIAD. I continued to Seattle, then to PANC, late night arrival online using VATSIM and low and behold I ran into another WWA captain making the trip from PANC back to KSEA very cool... I continued to some Paddock Island, still in Alaska, then to Japan. I headed down the East Coast of Asia down to my birth place, Hong Kong on 11/13/2006. I flew this entire charter online with the exception of the hop accross the pond from EINN to KBOS, stopping over in Greenland. My last leg was KBOS to KIAD, on 12/07/2007... great ATC all the way. Very glad for it to be over, but it was an proud accomplishment!

Longest WestWind Passenger Route, 5/4/2008 - Set off from EHAM enroute to NZAA. I planned my refueling stop at our hub in Narita Japan, RJAA. Final approach was early morning hours and visibility was foggy until 700 ft. After getting refueled pretty quickly we headed southeast towards Auckland. Winds werent that favorable until halfway to NZAA from RJAA when i caught a tailwind that pushed us to a gs of 614 knots. arrival at NZAA's rwy 5R was delayed by being made to go around by atc due to the aircraft landing before not being cleared of the rwy. Overall trip length was 9950.3 miles and was flown in 21.9 hours. was a good ride but make sure your FO and relief crew like to talk because there sure isnt much else to do on pond jumping.
