Evacuation and relief flights for hurricane Dean

well FS weather gave me some clouds at Kingston briefly so i decided just to leave then...but it was only a 13k wind...

Then...shortly after departure (15 minutes actually cos thats when FS updated the Weather) i had clear skies again!!

this lasted until i was over cuba...then thunderstorms could be seen adn my new Joystick gave me a bumby decent into miami!!!<br /><br /><!-- editby --><br /><br /><em>edited by: tbone-guy, Aug 20, 2007 - 12:43 AM</em><!-- end editby -->

Transported two Hummers and supplies via C-130 to MMUN. Will top off tanks in Cancun and then return to KDFW for further supplies and a faster bird for return to MMUN.

After spending the night in Miami, I'm now going to return my 747 to MSP with a few passengers who wish to go further east!!

I was disappointed about the real weather in FS9, but I compensated for it. I went to the weather settings in FS9 and changed it from real weather by selecting the option for "developing thunderstorms."

Now I need to make a trip to Cancun to save those who want to leave.
