| Our first leg was plagued with avionics difficulties. One plane's transponder failed an hour out of Ankeny. Another plane lost its primary GPS receiver and had to divert to Minneapolis then Chicago to obtain a replacement before continuing on. A third plane was delayed due to a delivery failure - survival suits which weren't in Ankeny as expected. Here are the three that made it to Timmins this afternoon. The other two arrived after we took off. |

| Air Creebeque offered to help fix the transponder failure but wasn't able to correct the problem. A replacement transponder is on its way via the plane that had to divert to Chicago. |

| Yes, Timmins does exist and this is our proof that at least three of the five planes have made it this far. |
