I am impressed with the bravery of you all flying in so much wind.
My absence wasn’t due to a lack of brownie points nor to being detained in hospital.
I was required to help the Virgin pilots fly in the windy conditions. There was only one runway open at Melbourne airport because of the strong northerly and the Adelaide landing was a full on cross wind landing. I had to use all my telepathic skills to keep the plane on the runway, but we got there OK.
I don’t know when we will be coming back as we don’t have a booking, but when needed we will return home 😊
