friends of RAS: the Cherokee Kid had a wonderful weekend of killer
cross country flying.

Saturday ... That had to have been somewhere near 11

Sunday.... Grand total

I lied folks. Saturdays flight was longer than Sundays. I put the
lat/longs in from google earth and Saturdays flight to Boone came out
to 10.7 nautical miles. Sundays flight to my pasture was 10.6
nautical miles. at least i broke 20 for the weekend.
