slowflyin Posted June 27, 2021 Report Share Posted June 27, 2021 Interesting flight yesterday. We encountered the usual scattered thunderstorms one would expect when traveling late in the day. However, one rather nasty, “red” cell parked itself over our destination. You can see remnants in the graphic. We had several VFR airports within clear view but elected to hold at the IAF. It occurred to me that I couldn’t recall ever holding for weather. Plenty of diversions and a few holds for other reasons but none for weather. We throttled back, listened to XM, and enjoyed the view. Winds were 210, 21 with gust so we circled to land 22. We opted for a short final as we were sticking our nose into it on the downwind. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
