"George Patterson" wrote The flight started on a ridge of the Appalachians. The pilot followed the ridges down to Tennessee, staying on the western side about 50' AGL. That way he stayed in a constant updraft. The article I read said the turbulence was brutal. I suspected that. I bet he was higher than 400 feet, at times, and well above 50 almost all the time. Steepness in places at that altitude would have put a wing into a mountain! -- Jim in NC
