I've spent the weekend so far on the West Coast, for work. Yesterday we spent 8 hours making power measurements on a new, advanced flight simulator. A pretty cool piece piece of equipment to work around - and we got the opportunity to sit in the co-pilot's chair and even to fly the thing. Let me tell you, when you put the thing into the dirt (as I did, on approach to virtual Savannah) the simulator really makes you feel it. Pulse pounding, endorphin releasing panic as the nose pushes down and cockpit alarms sound!
Heading back east this morning - it's 3:40 a.m. here, and I am messing around online before hopping into the shower. Pack it all up here, head back to the airport, fuel the rental, and hit the airport for a 7 a.m. flight. YAWN.
I have a lousy long layover in JFK - the good part is the fl
ight into New York is direct (and will be relatively quick) on decent equipment. I am so looking forward to yoga practice on Monday morning....
