Remarks:	Flown with Fliggity and crew as part of their new "Island Hopper: Greece" achievement. This was my first cross-country flight in the newly-released Black Square Turbine Duke. What a plane she is. I love how it handles. Beyond ATC also worked very well this flight. I had zero major issues with it this time. I was rather impressed! The flight itself was smooth, though I did mess up during the approach. ATC started vectoring me, so I activated Vectors to Final on the GTN. Eventually, they cleared me direct to PIDAX, the IAF, so I entered Direct To PIDAX, thinking that would bring me back to following the flight plan, which had the approach loaded. It did not, however. Instead, after reaching PIDAX, it turned me direct to the airport, never entering the approach guidance mode itself. I quickly realized what happened and then activated the VTF again, which made the plane turn to intercept the final approach course, and putting the GTN into its LNAV+V mode as I expected. After that, a quick dive to capture the glidepath was made, at which point the flight continued normally. Fun flight!
