Yes Nigel, I think our name was MUD among the other squadrons :agree:

Magnificent Under Duress?

Now I don't feel near as bad for choosing the downwind runway in our FLIGHT sessions.

Well I think that was partly my fault...I don't think you had been using FLIGHT with wind, before we started flying together, so you had got out of the habit of selecting the "Into Wind" runway.

I, on the other hand have always used FLIGHT with wind...I normally select the Weather to be "Low and Threatening" and that provides a good set of winds. Since I was always Host on our sessions, you were always lumbered with my weather :lol:
