Wow, C150 = Time Saver = Awesome 3 Days.

Most off of you know that I am from the pacific NW well I took a short job
in Yakima, WA well it's like a 4 hour one way drive from Vancouver, WA I did
it in just about 1.5 hour's in my C150. I was able to come home the same day
and not be tired and saved money on gas to boot! was able to get some rest
and did it again total of 3 times this week My performance on the job was a
hell of a lot better!

1 I had the rush of just flying and 2 I was not tired from a 4 hour drive
and 3, was not dreading a 4 hour drive back home. Found the Perfect way to
use my little 150 and My Instrument Rating. Makes that Little word
"Commuter" on the cowling mean somthing hehehehehe,

Because I fly, I envy no one.

All you people with your own birds make me jealous! Just kidding, that
is so cool to be able to do that huh?

Let's see if I've got this straight :-

- Live in Pacific northwest
- Got a job
- A pilot
- Own kite
- Use it for commuting
- Building hours
- Having a nice old time.

Sheesh. I'm glad it's happening to *somebody*..........kudos, fella ;-o !!!

Nope, My airplane is not certificated for doing rolls if business starts
improving I may be able to afford one that is certified to, but I think I
may end up getting a Piper Seneca would be more fun with the second engine
and longer range.

Hi Steve,

Thats cool.
Just a question or two.
How do you make those times?

My plane has a about the same speed as a C150.
If I compare a 4 hr drive I need a least about 3 hrs to do the same
journey by plane if the clock starts ticking the moment I close the
door behind me.
The airport is just 10 min. away, pre-flight the plane etc. 30 min.,
1.5 hrs for the flight, 20 min. after I'm landed and then I'm only at
another airport.
And that is probably not my final destination, so I need a taxi for the
last leg.

How do you manage it?

-Kees.

It's called mountain Ranges!!! C150 goes over them Car goes around them look
it up map quest it!

Ah, that figures.
Me being a true flatlander, I was not immediately aware of the
possibility of those landscape features ;-)
