Default Free Checkrides at Marfa, Texas

Well, that was a fun spring break. Big thanks to Burt for making me (plus company!) feel at home. A great opportunity to do the checkride and associated prep in modern equipment and at a fine airport.

We came from and returned to low-20's Pennsylvania. The landscape around Marfa was sensational; the restaurants, art and life music were enjoyable, and of course you get a kick out of flying the same sky where The Sunship Game was filmed in 1969, with someone who crewed back then.
