Pre-flight planning really is worth doing.

if I had done more than about 3
minutes of pre-flight planning, I would have known that. Sigh.


Moral of the story. The pilot should make himself aware of all and any
informantion
before he starts the engine.

Preflight planning sometimes has to start sooner than that. I was flying to
CVG (Cincinnatti, Ohio), so stopped by the FBO and picked up the plates for
Ohio and might have gone off fat dumb and happy, but I wanted to see the info
on the airport. I leafed through it, no Cincinatti. Tried again - how could I
miss it... but no matter how hard I looked, there just wasn't a Cincinatti in
Ohio. But I know better than that.... Now I know better than I knew when I
knew better than that. Cincinatti airport is in KENTUCKY!

Yep. Another clue is CVG (Covington, Ky). But I went to school there for 5
years so I'm cheating.
