Well, I started ;D!!
And what a day to start!!! Rain the first leg and the second iced on the surface controls so I could not manage well the Katana. Had to shake the stick several times to break the ice (and that is as it sounds.. it is simulated
)
So The first one I started to have loose of power over the river at 300 ft or less.
So I had to put carburator heat because the rain. The Katana don't like rain.. and it started to loose more power until the heat came to the carburator and went better.

The second one I had overcast at 6000ft. Glups! Take off or not takeoff... Well it is my free day so I could fly! Take off! Because I didn't know where the end of coulds was I started to turn in circles over KCZK to gain altitude and try to cross clouds. That was time lost.. but anyway... lot of fun!
At 5000ft I saw the sides of the volcano, so I decided to go. Well.. I would turn it where the clouds let me.. so there I went.
Climbing a little I had a quick shower and because temperature was 0ºC Bang! no speed indication, not altitude not variometer.... Ok.. all with GPS numbers.. Continue!
The turn was ok and suddently weather changed and had more temperature. Instruments back to normal. Ended turn of volcano after seeing the sky station, and went fast going down to 4S2.
