It's 6 a.m. in the morning, coffee in hand you stroll across the runway from the small hut you slept in to the operations office at a small grass airfield, you are still wondering how you got a Fairchild C119 in here last night.

Already the morning mist is deep and the rain drizzling.
Mild for this time of year, you muse, normally its heavier rain and force 10 gales.

Another pilot takes off into the fog as you reach the ops office, the duty Ops manager has left an assignment in your mail pigeon hole. Take a Baron 58 down to a tiny grass strip, it's urgent, a doctor needs to be on the Island in 3 hours.

People are ill, and the health service always pays well. It's up to you to get the job done, what ever the weather. No push button flying for you, no ILS, vis less then a mile, mountains and low cloud, no autoland... But you know how to really fly, you're a AHI virtual pilot.
