Today Adam went solo to a new airport. First time for him in the Waiex. He went to 62C, Cindy Guntly Memorial. It's 2400' of grass, one of the passport airports we need to do solo due to limited performance.

Correction, 49C. I had the wrong airport.

That's a long walk to Oshkosh! We will get up there someday.

"Tecnically' within walking distance.
Google maps says its 7 hours and 59 minutes.
Luckily 26 minutes to drive.
