Fast Start

Filed under: Big Adventure,SB Region — John @ 17:24

We discovered yesterday that the Carp Avo Fest is starting this weekend, and that the Miramar Air Show (!!!) is on during our days in San Diego. So here and on our Photos link you’ll probably see our low-flying pix of Carp crowds converging, and breathless posts with breathtaking pix of low-flying jets. What a fast start to this trip! Now if only we can get the bike sorted out in our brief remaining time…

Charts Aplenty

Filed under: Aviation,Big Adventure — John @ 08:25

The aeronautical charts for our trip arrived today. Wow. Plenty to look at, especially for NYC and DC. Lots more studying to do before we decide whether to venture close to those airspaces. We’ll also make a similar decision about Chicago on the way east. Did a lot of shopping today too, but somehow the lists keep getting longer instead of shorter! Also found out today about a couple of fun things right at the start of the trip. More tomorrow.
