Leg one is UAL763 KDWF-KDEN (United Airlines, Dallas to Denver) is normally operated by the 757 but my love affair with the LVLD 767-300 is still strong after all these years and she was the choice for the ride today.
Ready to go at KDFW
Weather at KDFW was hot and sticky at 35C with wind 063/06kts and clouds 5'000 few. Using the FERRA.3 departure off runway 35L we made our way through the traffic on the ground and in the air all the way up to FL340.
Line up and wait 35L KDFW
Arrival weather for KDEN was looking good but the heat has made it's way to the mile high city. Wind was calm with clouds 8'000 few and temps at 33C. Using the QUAIL.5 arrival on to runway 16L.
Flying over Dallas
I made a great landing and didn't get lost on my way to gate B47. It would be easy to do here at KDEN with it's massive size. I am using the Imagine Sim V2 of KDEN, and although it is not top quality like some payware stuff, it fits the bill nicely for the much needed KDEN. Something that was lacking in our flight sim world (a decent KDEN that is).
Short final 16L at KDEN
Think I will look fellow blogger Jerry up on my short stop over here at KDEN and have a coffee with him in the terminal (I will have to find my way over to the AAL terminal).
They call for thunderstorms to roll on through Denver later this afternoon so I'm hoping to make it out of here to KSEA on my second leg sooner rather than later....

One of my favorite US airports, KDEN, with it's massive layout.
I would have loved to see the arrival in that storm you mention!
Weather was hairy on the way out of KDEN! Great on the way in though!
