You have to be real careful with those direct-to's in the intermountain
West, especially with a normally aspirated bird.


That's exactly why I almost never get direct. The airways do a good job
of threading the mountains for me. I wish a Garmin exec would visit out
here, perhaps then we'd get airwasy in the Garmin units.
