Some would accuse me of being a builder rather than a flyer but tonight as my B1900 wheels touched down in Seattle, I've hopefully proved them wrong. :-)

What an experience to go from builder to flyer. Learning navigation, flight planning, ATC.. all within 2 hour windows per night. With my previous 777 sim I just didn't have the time to babysit an 8 hour flight after a long day's work. Two hours per night suited me just fine.

And so 3 weeks later, one bird strike, and one longer leg then usual with the engines breathing fumes, my B1900 is safely back in KSEA where this all began.

Back to some building, but only minor things... for the most part, my Beech 1900 is complete. :-)

lol! This is an amazing thing Ray! I am one of the ones who accuse you of being a builder. Proved me wrong! BUT..... I know you will be back to building soon. Lets see what is needed next on the 1900 flight deck??  :fire:
