Coast to coast trip finished :-)
Hi,
two moths ago I asked for suggestions regarding coast to coast trip in Cessna 172. I'd like to let you know, that I have completed this trip today :-) Had to skip some things from plan, and route around weather NE of Hot Springs. Had another thunderstorm activity encounter over New Orleans, but this time decided to wait untile they fade away. Whole trip took 19 days, 62.3hr hobbs time, and about 440 gal. of fuel. When we started I had 67hr total time, now I have 132hr. I think such trip is great way to get some more experience, especially how different weather looks from airplane - it's quite different view than from ground :-). I put up a page about this trip, with daily diary, photos, planned route and GPS trail of what was actually flown. It's on http://vyx.net/~philz/coast2coast Bye, -- Filip Zawadiak PP-ASEL 132hr |
