    All the Riddle callsigns brought me back to flight school there, talk about barely controlled chaos. ATC was always on top of things though.

    Wow, so that is what it looks like when you can get airborne before the crossing runway. I’ve flown out of PRC for the last 14 years. And never have I ever been airborne before that runway. I’ve always seen the golfers clapping and raising their drivers as we go overhead.

      I’ve only been a resident of AZ for about a year and a half actually! 😂 I’m a Michigan native, but we have our fair share of towns that people don’t pronounce correctly, so I guess that’s me trying my best to not screw it up lol.

    Wondering if you’d consider a consultation call about your video and audio. I tried with new camera gear, and the quality and pain of it all induced me to return it all. Want to try again. Your video is great and your audio is also great. Would you have time for a call? Great flight in a great aircraft…. Would love a copy of that checklist also!

      Not it at all actually. Planned PXR in the route to get sufficient time at FL250. Thus the radio call to ABQ Center that I was on a maintenance flight and wanted the full route.
