Another Coast-to-Coast
Twice in the past I've made X-C *almost* coast-to-coast: EDW-VPS in a
Mooney in '78, and LFI-ABQ in a C-172 in '04. Going the full distance, ocean to ocean, became a goal I hoped to achieve one day. My wife came to share the vision and we started plotting and planning the trip to fly from home in Virginia to Oakland (we have grandkids there), and return. Our reservation for an Arrow from the Aero Club fell through (wing rib replacements) so we rented a C-172N (180 hp) and on June embarked on a 3 week adventure. Check the next postings in this thread for summaries of the westward and eastward trips. george
