I can't decide whether you're adventurous, crazy -- or both! That's quite a cross-country flight with just 67 hours under your belt -- and in a foreign country, no less. Heh :-) I was more afraid of fact, that after finishing my PPL I had one year with 3hr of flight before this vacation. But it wen't much better than I expected, did BFR before going out. As for foreign country, I feel much more confident flying in the USA than back in Poland ;-) After all, I learned here... And as hours go, what's better to get experience that such flight? I thought that it's way better than do 30 local cross-countries, and now I think it's not that big deal to fly across USA. Maybye I had great luck with weather, had just two days of weather delay and two days of flight in bad VFR... It just takes a lot more money than local flying - had to rent lots of cars, pay for lots of motels, even when we had camping equipment in airplane. And eat some real food sometimes ;-) I just felt I need real rest and not short sleep in a tent. Great flight -- great story. Thanks for sharing it... Thanks :-) Hopefully in a year or two I'll go for IFR rating, now have that crosscountry experience. -- Filip Zawadiak PP-ASEL 130hr |
