" Just for fun, Liam, Kurt and I flew POA412 (JFK-PIK) today on VATSIM. Kurt slept in , lazy so and so <!--emo&:D--><!--endemo--> . But it worked well for him, he had JFK tower and Shanwick Oceanic online. All I had for the whole flight was Shannon Centre for about 5 mins. Just enough for him to blow my planned descent profile, LOL. Liam had a PC crash and failed to finish. Sleepy head Kurt is still enroute. I am really looking forward to the Polar Air routes. Prestwick has a big soft part in my heart. I lived in the area for 26 years, my mother is fron Prestwick, and as a kid and adult I spent a lot of time spotting there. During the late 70s to mid 80s it grew quiet. But nowadays Polar Air, Air France, Cargolux, Ryanair and BA fly EGPK. So when I return later this year I look forward to seeing lots of action and some 742s and 744s. "
