Dover, DE (USA)
[Training Mission to Boston] After departing Meridian this morning, our flights through South Carolina (Shaw) and Delaware (Dover) were going well until we started to leak a large amount of fuel on the ramp at the later Air Base! After that was contained, I still had to deal with people about why my old plane is such a piece of crap... The next flight, from Dover to Bedford, MA, was good until we started talking to the Boston controllers. My French student couldn't understand what was being said at all! In the end, I took the communications and we made it in OK... After checking into the CBQ at Hanscom Air Force Base ("Hanscom Inn"), I borrowed a car and drove south to Quincy. Ended up spending the night with my sister, Katie, and her family.
