Flight West - July 2019
I haven't been on a long cross-country flight in almost three years so it was time. I loaded up the RV and headed northwest to Niagara Falls, then followed the Great Lakes and the Canadian border all the way to Seattle, then down to San Diego, then to Tucson, Dallas, and home. Great trip. 67 hours in the RV. The plane ran great and I enjoyed good weather, albeit a little warm at times.
