Hi Jim..
That one escaped me. Glad I wasn't there though!
One time long ago, I was doing the flying on an 8 and we were approaching
a line of CBs. I studied the radar intently, and thought to myself..
"I can do this!" when the wiley old captain (sensing that I was contemplating
on breaching the brick wall at a "soft spot") suddenly picked up the mike and
requested "direct Duluth, direct Saulte Ste. Marie..." AWAY AROUND the mess.
I learned about flying from that!
