Remarks: Flown for the "Christmas 2024" special event achievement. I don't know how Kevin McCallister keeps finding himself alone during the holidays. Who am I to wonder about these things? I just fly the plane! No signs of Harry and Marv on the flight, though. We had undercast throughout most of the flight. Had to set up for a CATIII approach into JFK thanks to 1/2sm visibility and rain. I would've let the plane autoland but it was porpoising on short final, so I just took manual control as soon as I saw the approach and runway lights. Had to ensure smoother than 400fpm for ol' Kevin here! It made for a fun flight! This was also my first flight using BATC in quite a while. It felt good. The vectors it gave me were good. I never felt like they were steering me wrong at all. Unfortunately I couldn't make use of the new traffic features because I don't have any models installed. I'll have to check that side of it out later.
