Default How I celebrated the Anniversary


I returned a few hours ago from my flight to celebrate the 100th
anniversary.

A few years ago I had an idea for a flight I wanted to take but never
motivated to do it.
Thanks in a good part to a post in rec.piloting asking what was planned to
celebrate the anniversary.
I thought to do it on the 17th. With the weather in New York looking very
bad for tomorrow I took the flight today.

Today I landed at all 11 public paved airports on Long Island in New York in
a round robin flight.

Farmingdale
Kennedy Intl
La Guardia
Mattituck
Fishers Island
Montauk
East Hampton
West Hampton ( Gabreski )
Spadaro ( east moriches )
Brookhaven

It was a fun day of flying and a tribute and a Thank You to all the aviators
and people of
aviation who have made it possible for me to FLY !!
