Oscar Avalle Posted November 21, 2015 Author Report Posted November 21, 2015 Well, yesterday I got the plane back to KGAI. Some minor squawks and a larger one. My Vacuum pump went belly up after I took off from Miami. So my backup (My ASPEN) is primary was dead... But otherwise the flight was LONG but no issue. I stopped at Lowcountry Regional in SC, got some gas and then on to KGAI. Once I got close to the DC SFAR area I got a LONG reroute and then I landed at KGAI. So now my videos will be about the NE... not so exotic... 1 Quote

Oscar Avalle Posted November 22, 2015 Author Report Posted November 22, 2015 Nothing happened to the ASPEN. The irony was that the backup failed... Quote
