Eddie had a beautiful takeoff from the runway 1L-19R heading north, and then once he cleared 17,000 feet, I helped him engage the autopilot, and right now we're locked in direct for VHHH (Hong Kong International).
If we leave everything running, we should be there by bedtime.
(Interestingly enough, Eddie took a big detour to go see Santa at the North Pole, so we had to do a little in flight refueling. Isn't it nice that those KC-10 tankers are always ready to refuel, no matter what aircraft, no matter what location?)
