My wife is from Nevada. I have used the highway into town as a runway
many times, parked next to the Bar at the edge of town. The road is
perfectly straight for about 7 or 8 miles, and it is easy to check for
vehicular traffic. There are no power lines or cross traffic for over
thirty
miles. I've talked with the local sheriff, and he has no problem as long
as
resonable safety precautions are used. The bar owner thought having an
airplane outside was an attraction.


Is it eight hours bottle to throttle and no smoking within 100 feet of
the airplane, or no drinking with 100 feet of the airplane and no
smoking eight hours before flying?


You didn't expect him to DRIVE home in that condition did you?

I've seen Cannonball run, you can drive a jet with no wings on the
interstate.
