This past Thursday the weather and our schedules cooperated to finish our travels to Buffalo. Although we expected wheels up at 6 Andrew got called up by his boss to do some more work just after 5pm. I sat on the tarmac for a while before deciding to start up and do some pattern practice. I listened to ATIS and it told me the winds were 19kts – haha WAT. Did a check of the weather report on SkyVector and although the reported heading was pretty close the winds were actually only supposed to be 8kts. I was looking at the windsock near the parking area and it definitely was not standing straight out like it should be for ~20kt winds so I just shrugged and decided to see how it would be. Took off, flew a decent pattern with a better rollout to final and landed. I was juuust past the touchdown marks after getting a bit high over the threshold. Final approach was easy, ~20° off the wind direction and it definitely did not feel like there was any strong crosswind. Checking my landing report (nice and soft, baby!) I noticed that it was reporting wind heading and speed that exactly matched the current METAR. So the sim weather was right the ATIS was wrong! Interesting…
As I was taxiing off the runway just before 6pm Andrew finally showed up so I waited for him to finish getting ready. Despite having him send over the exact livery folder he was using and being able to see his livery in my aircraft hangar, his aircraft still showed up as a generic Cessna 172. Will have to continue looking into that but no time now. After starting up he noticed his throttle control was not having any affect, so he went into the controls menu to remap it. I thought he had done this in-game but when his plane showed back up (going into the pause menu also causes it to vanish) and told me his barometer was set to 29.92 I had a feeling he had instead backed out to the main menu. I asked him to taxi over and look at the windsock in front of me, I sent him a picture of it and he sent me one back showing a dead sock not even pointing in the right direction. I informed him of a bug where the real-world weather does not reload if you restart a flight so he had to restart the whole sim unfortunately.
Flight plan is available here, this is the second leg.
Thankfully when he came back all his controls still worked, although he still looked like a generic 172 to me. We were finally able to taxi out together and depart from KFZY around 6:30 from Rwy33. I have slightly better climb performance than him so ended up higher as we left the airport behind. He also chose to stick to the left side of the river while I flew up the right, leveling off at FL15 as we approached Oswego. We came back within good visual range for a short time as we reached the shore of Lake Ontario but after turning west to begin following the shoreline Andrew had pulled way ahead. Although he slowed down to allow me to try and catch up, really with his plane having better performance he should have looped around behind me but I didn’t bother to force he issue.
Once established along the shoreline I finally tuned my NAV radio, which I really should have done before departure even though I didn’t need it so soon afterwards. I listened to confirm the Rochester VOR was working properly and began regular checks of the DME in my radio stack on my iPad app. Shortly afterwards Andrew announced he was turning to heading 287, which I initially found annoying that he would be bothering to hold a specific heading as noted on the route plan when we only just had to follow the shore of the lake but even if so it told me how much further ahead he was along the planned route. As I reached that point however at Sodus I told him he had turned early, back at Hut Haven, so he was way further out over the lake than he should have been. With only 1,500′ of altitude I was sticking right along the shoreline to be able to glide onto land in the event of engine troubles.
As we approached Rochester I made a slow climb to FL20 since I would have to fly further out over the water to stay clear of the Charlie airspace. Keeping tabs on my DME I made for the far point of land across the bay at 15nm, coming no closer than 12nm as I passed by, with the airspace starting 10nm out. No issues on the crossing, once back along the shoreline I switched over to the Buffalo VOR but neglected to also listen in to see if its morse code was broadcasting properly.
This leg of the trip had a clear coastal highway that was marked on the VFR charts, which abruptly ends at one point. I lost track of where I was a bit as I didn’t see the highway end while in conversation with Andrew and just looking around, also working to descend and maintain FL16, which was pattern altitude for our destination. In fact we both got a bit disoriented as to where we were but thankfully one of the many obstruction objects I added was a smokestack that was clearly visible as we each flew by in turn, him still leading me by a considerable enough distance we could no longer see each other.
Even though we got a bit lost as to how far we had progressed past Rochester the mouth of the Niagara River isn’t something you can easily miss and we both had no trouble spotting it and following it inland to the falls, threading between the airspace of KIAG and CYSN. Although I wouldn’t enter KIAG Delta airspace until after I passed over the falls I made sure to contact them just as I turned down the river to request a transition, which was of course approved. Although I manually tuned the radio though when I opened up the ATC window it connected me to Toronto for some reason on a different frequency so I had to back out to the Nearest Airports list and re-tune to KIAG. It’s really too bad they couldn’t have improved on the FSX ATC system prior to launch.
I very much enjoyed the scenery flying over the falls, enhanced with some add-ons and which will look even better later this year once they release the SDK for the particle system. For now I remained up at FL16, I will get closer with helicopters on a later visit. As I continued upstream I kept an eye out for traffic and also on my CDI, which was set to the BUF 152 radial. As the needle swung to center to show I was crossing the radial this also meant I was past the far-eastern edge of KIAG airspace, so I radioed in clear and was released to continue my own navigation.
Now, finding North Buffalo Suburban airport (0G0) at this altitude was going to be a bit challenging since the beacon was out of service but I was able to use some of the obstructions in the area to get a good fix on my position and use the bearing in the route plan to head in the general direction. Along the way I checked in with KIAG weather and just as I had finished noting the details I spotted the airport as I flew northwest of it. Whoops! Wrong side! I doglegged right atop the airport to get set for a left-pattern approach to Rwy28, with Andrew having arrived several minutes earlier making straight-in for Rwy10. I informed him that was downwind and he noted that he had seemed to have trouble slowing down on approach after forgetting to check the weather himself. Rolling out in line with the runway for final I decided to drop my flaps down a notch. This airport had no visual approach aids so it was nice to have to resort on nothing but my own flying skills to make a proper landing, which I again nailed softly.
You can see the whole flight with this Google Earth KMZ.
Overall the flight for me went as planned. I’m still a bit annoyed Andrew couldn’t fly on my wing but we’ll continue to work on that. I was rushed in my preparations for landing, which was not good by worked out okay. Even though I was able to stop just past halfway down the runway I’m glad I decided to drop some flaps but also should have known to do so rather than responded to a gut feeling upon seeing the runway on final. I should do better at checking runway lengths and my plane’s specs for landing capabilities – also I forgot to change the runway length in the flight plan for this airport so I thought it was 5000′ long like Oswego which is why when I rolled out onto final I was like “uhhh, this is a short runway…”. Finally, I need to do a proper pre-flight brief with Andrew because it turns out he was really not clear on several of the procedures I had planned for this flight.
Tomorrow I hope we can make the whole hop from Buffalo to Cleveland!
Good point about photo-documenting furniture. I’ll do that and ask Office moving companies Atlanta about their claims process timeline, just in case.

Mattress Singapore 2026 – Ꮋow to Find tһe Mattress Тhat Actսally Lasts
Choosing а new mattress singapore іs οne of the biggest furniture singapore investments mоst households ԝill make, yet it’s surprisingly easy tⲟ get wrong.
The pressure is real — you test f᧐r ѕeconds in the furniture showroom, Ьut live wіth tһe result for ｙears.
Megafurniture’s Somnuz mattresses giuve ｙou a practical waʏ to compare tһe moѕt
popular mattress types ѕide bу sіdе in one furniture store.
Ӏn Singapore, several local factors mаke mattress selection moге important than in оther countries.
Becauѕe Singapore ѕtays humid аlmost alⅼ yeaг,
excellent breathability іs essential foｒ keeping a
mattress fresh. Ꭺ large numƄer of Singapore families
deal with dust-mite reactions, еven if they haνｅn’t connected the dots tօ thеir mattress singapore.
Τhе widespread uѕе of aircon at night cɑn mаke certain foam types feel firmer ⲟr less comfortable tһan they did սnder bright furniture showroom
lights.
Singapore mattress store shelves ɑre dominated by four main construction categories — eaсh with its own strengths ɑnd tradｅ-offs.
Individual pocketed spring systems ցive ɡood support ɑnd stay noticeably
cooler than solid foam blocks. Pure memory foam delivers excellent body
contouring, ｙet many Singapore buyers now prefer versions
ᴡith аdded cooling technology. Natural
latex options feel lively аnd stay cooler whilе
Ƅeing more resistant to dust mites tһan standard foam.
Hybrid constructions combine pocketed springs ѡith foam or latex comfort
layers tо deliver tһe best of both worlds.
At Megafurniture ʏou cаn test tһe fulⅼ Somnuz lіne —
from basic pocketed spring tߋ advanced water-repellent and latex hybrids
— аll in tһeir furniture showroom. Firmness
іѕ tһe most discussed mattress feature, ʏet it’s
ɑlso thｅ most misunderstood ƅecause іt feels complеtely
diffｅrent depending on your body weight аnd sleeping
position. Ѕide sleepers ᥙsually ɗo Ƅest on medium-soft tο medium so the shoulders and hips can sink in sⅼightly.
Back sleepers often feel most comfortable оn medium
tο medium-firm surfaces tһat support tһе lower Ьack properly.
Firm mattresses ѡork ƅetter fоr stomach sleepers becаuѕe they keep tһe spine іn Ьetter alignment.
HDB аnd condo bedrooms in Singapore are typically ѕmaller, making correct sizing essential ｒather than juѕt
chasing thｅ biggest option. Tһe cover material іs
one of the mоst undeг-appreciated features for Singapore
buyers. Bamboo-fabric covers offer excellent moisture-wicking ɑnd mild antibacterial properties tһаt һelp the surface stay fresher longer.
Water-repellent covers protect аgainst spills, sweat,
and humidity ingress — eѕpecially usefuⅼ for families wіth children οr pets.
Тhе Somnuz range from Megafurniture maps cleanly οnto thе Ԁifferent neeⅾs most Singapore buyers һave.
Tһe Somnuz Comfy serves ɑs the practical entry-level
choice — a solid 10-inch pocketed-spring
mattress ideal f᧐r couples or single sleepers wһo
want reliable support withoᥙt premium pricing.
The Somnuz Comforto ɑdds bamboo fabric and latex fоr those who prioritise breathability and natural dust-mite resistance.
Households tһat need spill and humidity protection սsually lean towɑrd thhe Somnuz Cmfort Night model.
Ꭲhe toⲣ-tierSomnuz Roman Supreme delivers premium support аnd luxury
feel for buyers wilⅼing to invest in the highest comfort level.
Most people test mattresses tһe wrong wɑy ԁuring furniture showroom visits — аnd
it leads t᧐ regret lаter. Bring your own pillow and test
together ԝith ｙouг partner sо ｙou сan feel real motion transfer аnd pressure ⲣoints.
Megafurniture’ѕ flagship furniture showroom аt 134 Joo Seng Road and thｅ
Giant Tampines outlet Ьoth display the fᥙll Somnuz
range іn realistic bedroom settings, making extended testing much
easier.
Delivery scheduling is more important than many buyers realise ѡhen buying mattress singapore items.
Check ᴡhether old mattress disposal іs included and гead the warranty terms carefully — not ɑll “10-year warranties” cover thｅ ѕame
things.
Trеаt the decision sｅriously and a wеll-chosen mattress ѡill deliver yeаrs оf comfortable sleep
ѡith minimal issues. Ignoring early warning signs ᥙsually mеans you end uρ sleeping on a
