May 05,  Leg 05 PHDH to PHHI

Visibility: 9 Miles                   Wind: 3 Knots

Departure: Rwy 26              Arrival: Rwy 24

Flight time: 27 mins. 20 secs.

 

This morning I woke up with a headacke. To much wine yesterday I guess. After a good breakfast I wend to the airport for a new flight. This time we leave Dillingham, heading to Wheeler AFB. Weather was fair, visibility 9 miles and a nice breeze. I first passed PHHI and then heading over the mountains to the see. After 10 miles turning around to intercept the Rwy 24. Are other pilots this doing to?

 

 

                       Leaving PHDH (Dillingham)                                                                          Not much visibility

 

 

                             Passing PHHI...                                                                                           flying just over the moutains

 

 

                       Clouds just for approaching                                                                  Approaching PHHI Rwy 24

 

I was a little unattent on the glide slope, so there I lost points (to low and to slow on final). But the target touchdown point was the best I ever had

 

I'll hope Wheeler is a nice place to stay. Waht I've seen till now, I'll like it.

Have a save flight and enjoy.

 

Jacob.

Jacob.

Jacob.

- and you said that you might not make it - before we started, and here you are flying away, posting, taking screens, posting those, and generally seem to have one heck of a good time. Cool pictures, and excellent stories to go with it. Way to go Jacob.

Keep it up. I´ll pop in and see what you think of next.


Regards
Ole Andreasen, Denmark

May 06,  Leg 06 PHHI to PHJR

Visibility: 93.73 Miles                   Wind: 6 Knots at 89

Departure: Rwy 06                    Arrival: Rwy 04L

Flight time: 20 mins. 20 secs.

 

Today w'll do a fly from Wheeler AFB (PHHI) to Kalaeloa (PHJR). I was a little lazy this morning, so I started at 14.20 local time. The weather was fine, wind 6 knots at 89. I departed from Rwy 6 at PHHI turning to the right to get on course to PHJR.

 

 

                  Leaving PHHI on course to PHJR                                                      Passing PHJR

 

 

                Clear to land (flaps and gear down)                                Drifting to Rwy 04L because of crosswind

 

 

                      Approaching Rwy 04L                                Almost landing (watch the AI aircraft on top of the image)

 

 The flight was good, landing could be better. Because of the crosswind I have to drift a little to the runway. Concentrating on the target touchdown point, I forgot to concentrate on glide slope Ooh boy, so much to think about!!

Problems were:

Poor glideslope on visual approach - you can do better.
Poor alignment with runway on visual approach - line up and stay there.

Touch down not aligned with the runway - let's point down the runway.
Poor steering after landing - stay on the centre line.

Hope you all can do better

Have a save flyiing,

Jacob.

Jacob.

May 11,  Leg 07 PHJR to PHNL

Visibility: 31.25 Miles                   Wind: 8 Knots at different directions

Departure: Rwy 04L                   Arrival: Rwy 08L ILS

Flight time: 26 mins. 31 secs.

 

This was such a nice day, I totally forgot time! I've beeing swimming, surfing (great wind) reading a little on the beach, so I did'nt think on flying at all

Therefore I was a little late. On 17.00 Local time on the airport of Kalaeloa. After the necessary inspections of the Cessna 182rg, I was ready to go about 17.50.

 

 

                             Parked at PHJR                                            Flying in to the pattern directed from ATC

 

ATC directed me at Rwy 04L for departure. Then Honolulu center directed me on course 270 to enter the pattern at a later time.

 

 

                    Passing PHJR again                                                                    PHNL in sight

 

 

                    Clear for landing Rwy 08L                                           Landing on PHNL (almost dark by now...)

 

I followed the ATC instructions so right on time I was entering the glide slope. No comments on the flight, only on landing I was ballooning a bit Sorry mr. Smith, I tried to do my best shot!

 

So I'm in Honolulu now. Should I leave or should I stay? (Is'nt this a song?)

Maybe I call my wife that it will be a few months later before I come back

 

Salute to all of you, good luck with what you're doing.

Hit them!

 

Jacob.

Jacob.

May 13,  Leg 07 PHNL to PHNG

Visibility: 123.64 Miles                   Wind: 5 Knots at 30

Departure: Rwy 04R                    Arrival: Rwy 04

Flight time: 14 mins. 58 secs.

 

After a day sightseeing in Honolulu, today I flyed to PHNG (Kaneohe Bay).

Departing from Rwy 04R flying straight out over the mountains. After that I turned right to descend to the correct height, turning back to intercept Rwy 04.

Till now I've got the best landing score.

 

Sorry, I forgot to make screenshots this time. Next time better. Happy flying and good luck!

May 15,  Leg 09 PHNG to PHMK

Visibility: 129.94 Miles           Wind: 0 Knots

Departure: Rwy 04              Arrival: Rwy 35

Flight time: 33 mins. 15 secs.

 

This afternoon we're flying to Molokai. A little longer flight than most flights in this tour. Weater was fine, no trouble to be expected during this flight. At 16.05 we depart from Rwy 04 at PHNG. I thought there would always be an hot sun on Hawaii, but's that seems not the case. Most of the time there are clouds in the air...

 

 

                             Leaving PHNG                                                          Some clouds are passing by

 

 

                      Island Molokai in sight                                                             Passing PHMK

 

 

                         Some nice views                                                            Landed Rwy 35 PHMK

 

We departed from Rwy 04 and landed on Rwy 35 PHMK. There were no comments in the pilotlog, the landingpoints were downsized because of the distance from Mark. Next time we need to get a little closer.

 

 

Happy and save flying you all!

 

Regards,

 

Jacob.

May 15,  Leg 10 PHMK tp PHLU

Visibility: 61.45Miles           Wind: 1 Knots at 351

Departure: Rwy 04              Arrival: Rwy 23

Flight time: 16 mins. 46 secs

 

At the end of the day I decided to fly to PHLU (Kalaupapa). I departed at 17.40 for this short flight. The flight was good, no winds, fine weather.

 

 

                              On route...                                                                   and on final again...

 

 

      This is what realy pissed me off...too HIGH                                  Landed on Rwy 23 PHLU

 

Landing was bad, much too far from touchdown point!! Gggrrrrrrrrrrr.....

 

The last few flights I make a flightvideo of the landings. So I can play them back to see what's wrong (or what's good).

The third image is made from the flightvideo, because I'm to concentrated on landing to make screenshots at realtime.

 

Hope it will be better next time

 

And you can surly do better, you lucky guys outthere

 

Good luck for the rest of the tour,

 

Regards,

 

Jacob.

May 16,  Leg 11 PHLU to PHNY

Visibility: 36.83 Miles           Wind: 4 Knots

Departure: Rwy 05              Arrival: Rwy 03 ILS

Flight time: 28 mins. 25 secs.

 

Leaving PHLU on about 16.00 hrs. to PHNY. I depart from Rwy 05. The weather is fine, so it will be a good flight.

 

 

        Wooohhh, just over the mountains near PHLU                                                  On route

 

  

                             Nice blue sea's                                                         Approaching Rwy 03 PHNY

 

 

                             Almost there...                                                                  ...On final

 

                            and touchdown.

 

The flight was good, at landing I was ballooning again and the other comment was "poor glideslope on ILS approach".

As I say always: I'm never to old to learn

 

Happy and save flying!

 

Jacob.
