The leg to CTJ was kinda long (70 minutes) but it was relaxing. Flying to
BHM from CTJ was rather interesting. The sun was shining bright right at
me. The little sun visor in the plane really didn't help. Since I couldn't
see clearly, I really had to rely on the instruments.


Let me make a suggestion which has really helped me over the years when flying
into the sun. Order one of those sunshades from Sporty's or where ever... one
of those sheets of green plastic film that just sticks to the windshield where
ever you need it.

I'll second those stick-on visors. Our plane doesn't have visors, so we
really need them.

I also keep a baseball cap in my flight bag. The bill pulled down low
over my eyes is very helpful in direct sun.
