We have 35 miles before San Pablo applies at 4000 and we will accept it, so we need to begin our descent. I'll bring the power here. Oh, since we're high, we'll bring it back to about 20 psi of torque and disable altitude hold. We are at vertical speed and we will lower the vertical speed. at about a thousand feet per minute, we'll actually do uh 1300, we'll try to catch up with our v navigation profile and then once we reach v navigation profile, we can press v-nav up here and it will continue down. capture it, we also need to set our altitude preset to 4000. so that it captures it when we arrive, that's the fastest we can go about November 9 or November 2-1 golf contact minneapolis approach 121.2 approach one to 1 ,2 in November golf see you hello uh minneapolis

We have authorization to land in some clouds and set flaps at 30 degrees. We are within the flap speed range on glide path or at 2800 lower is 960 955. Go ahead and turn on the prop heater since we are going to be inertial here. the separator is open the duel is slightly balanced of course, collecting, correcting, we have contact with the ground here, so we should be able to get back on track shortly and the tracks in sight, maxine, do you mind saving this for me? Thank God I have to go, why is there so much? oh, because there's someone there and something there that's steam coming out of the top of the factories, yeah, it's not actually smoke, what do you see?

I have never seen a skyscraper in my entire life. Wow, well, I have pictures. Okay, Mystery Doug, but yeah, I cleared the land. I took amps off this earth. 30 degrees flaps 500 why did you say 500? So we're 500 feet above the ground okay we're high not really yeah we don't have ice so we can turn off the inertial separator or dsb plus 20 so we can.

Slow down a little here, wouldn't it be great if we could land on the water? That would be a great minimum. We could do it, but only once. Well, we have three green fins in 30. Why would that be the lowest? We could go if we had been in the clouds and go down there while we are still in the clouds. A helicopter. Do you know we're coming? Yes, I called him yesterday in November. Golf cleared alpha 2 going to the flight center. one of the golf saint paul ground tax flight centers via alpha and lima crosstalk two seven alpha lima cross two seven to the flight center at one o'clock in november golf I'm buckle where we will park our plane we go to the st flight center Paul, not on the road today, we are on the taxiway, not on the runway, the milky way, the milky way, just kidding, what if airplanes could go to space?
