11th Annual Northern CA Sonex flyin - Rio Linda, CA

[LarryEWaiex121]

Mike,

Nothing to be jealous of. Each time a guy does one of these it takes a little out of your soul.
This seems to be the challenge of long cross country's. Sooner or later your going to end up at a strange
field with outrageous winds or something not to your liking. The thought always going through my brain is
I'm not wanting to scratch my toy a long ways from home with no spare engines or propellers.
Unfortunately, I'm not funded as well as a Sprint Cup Team. Larry

Looked a bit treacherous below at times, Jim! Reminds of my time flying over western Montana. Glad you had a great time...:)

I always have a field in sight when flying ;). It was drilled into my head when I learned to fly sailplanes. Of course 10:1 is a lot different from 44:1. Even when I crossed the Rockies I saw lots of meadows that could be used in an emergency. Safe flying y'all
