4 1/2 hour drive? You could leave you house by 6 AM and be in the air
by
11:30 and get hours of ridge soaring and still be back home by 9 PM.

It it a 11:30 hour drive from Tulsa, OK and it is well worth the drive
if I can
get 2-4 good days of ridge soaring. I was out there last April and the
flying was
great!
Our ridge soaring site in SE Oklahoma is a 3 hour drive and we will do
it for
just one good day of ridge and wave soaring.

I sure wish that I was only 4 1/2 hours from Chilhowee!

Yeeah, if I had my ticket, and was going for a long weekend of flying or
something, it would be worth it. Perhaps even for a couple rides as a
passenger. Too far to go for lessons and building a few hours on a regular
basis, though.
