Couldn't agree with you more Jay. 4 hours in the Aztec not only saved us 19
hours of driving, but made our holiday travel possible. We simply wouldn't
have driven.

If it had been better flying weather, would you have crossed Lake Michigan
in your Aztec?

What's that flight, in hours?

Agree as well. We spent Thanksgiving in Santa Fe- six hours flying time,
which was actually less than commercial, especially considering the
connections, need to park at the airport, security checks, lost luggage,
etc.

I was actually able to bring my own can of shaving cream and a leatherman on
the plane!

We usually do, and we did on the way home. 1:20 over the lake vs 2.5-3 hrs
going around.
