How was the trip home, Tad? I neglected to monitor button one on the way,
sorry. We stayed underneath 2/3's of the way. Stopped at De Kalb, IL, east
of Chicago to check wx and fill up ($4.51), then over Danville, IL and
stopped at Louisville, KY for a break and top-off. The TRW depiction on the
396 was a huge help. Without it I could have easily seen a repeat of last
year where it took three days to get home. Anyway, near the mtns we where
able to climb to 9500 and saw 204 KTS across the ground. Yipee! Another
great trip in the RV......

It sounds like my trip home. We boarded after breakfast around 9am. After
waiting for 2 planes in a large row to get their IFR departure clearance for
a beautiful VFR day. ehem I stopped at 4I7 for a double garlic cheese
burger and onion rings. Talk about a gut bomb. It was great though. The
fuel there was 3.47 gal. I climbed out from there to 7500 and found no
favor in the wind. So I decended back to 4500 where it got rough so we went
up to 9500 and finally the last 150kt miles we found favorable wind. We did
get 195kts but seems you found a better wind. All in all a great trip and
the last evening was dry in the tent. I did not see you at the BBQ. I made
TJ walk the better part of a mile looking for it. Finally we hiked back to
the plane for the directions. Yeah I know, but I did ask for directions
along the way. With coordinates in hand 15min later we were drinking a beer
with 2 Aussies who thought our beer was for sissies and it was rumored to
contain alcohol. Then off to watch Air Force One on the big screen.
I am buying an attitude indicator (electric) I will keep for backup and then
a NAV indicator and begin IFR training after I have my new toys.
See ya
