Recon flight KBIX to KTPA - TCA2050 - 07-24-2011
This flight took me from Biloxi KBIX to Tampa Intl Florida KTPA, and for this I used the A2A P47 Razorback with Accusim cruising along at 230IAS at 1500 feet (36"MP / 2550RPM).
Here are some screenshots I took enroute
Along the coast, near Pensacola NAS FL
over Tyndall AFB...
... intercooler open and no turbo in use yet at this altitude
over Apalachicola Bay

Definitely the place I could feel at home :-)
Getting nearer to the destination dark clouds and rain came along.
Passing Yankeetown with the powerplant in view
Final destination, Tampa FL.

Nice report and pictures Stefaan. And now back to Biloxi.

Today I took the P47 back to Biloxi for saturday's MP event.
This time cruising at 9.500 ft at around 270/280 IAS with a tad of turbo power.
Another nice sight passing Apalachicola Bay
Around Tyndall, rain came up again, luckily only a local shower
Nice view of Redfish Cove located in the bay
And by the time we arrived at Biloxi, storms were coming in... but we managed to land before they arrived
Now getting the P47 serviced with some fresh oil before saturday.

Hey Stefaan,
Again some very nice pictures and you also captured a lightning strike.

Nice shots Stefaan, the P-47 is a great looking beast!
