Hello All,

I continued my adventure leaving Thunder Bay, Ontario and headed south-east to London, Ontario.

Along this trip I crossed 3 of the great lakes. Lk Superior, Lk Michigan and Lk Huron.
I was clear skys the entire way which allowed me to realize just how much water is around there! There was no run-in's with any AI traffice this time  Roll Eyes and I was very proud of my landing! (getting better as time goes by)  Grin

Destination...
...

Route Info...
...

Engine startup...it was funny that ATC did not have me follow any proper taxi ways! I guess they did not realize it was an addon scenery...
...

Taxiing to the runway...I follow a 172 that I guess did not realize where the proper taxi ways were either...  Roll Eyes
...

Lined up and cleared for departure...
...

Lift-off...beautiful Thunder Bay scenery in the background..
...

Lining up route... more Thunder Bay in the background...
...

Passing Beaver Island on Lk Michigan...
...

Lining up for final...
...

Above the threshold...
...

Touch down...a little off center and a little dust but not too bad...
...

Parked and secured...
...

Comments and/or criticism welcome! Grin

It sure was! Although I did have a 172 come within 1.2 nm's of me! I missed getting the screen shot though...

Of course ATC was screaming at me to be one to call the visual contact...
