In order to keep everyone informed, I am doing a
'diary' style update of the trip currently under
way.
all you rivet pounders and others wishing you were
here can get excited so you can take the next
'excellent adventure'...Left SVH at 8:30 or so
headed
to LWV. 10 RVs...under Capt. Cappy's supervision. 2
1/2 hrs. later, after smooth flt. at 8500', we
brought
3 flights down thru bumpy air to land in 18G28knot
winds at LWV in Illinois. Winds at altitude were
stiff..40-50k, but amazingly calm except below
3500'.
Second leg of 2.1 hrs was similar, however, we
proved
the strength and reliability of the RV aircraft as
everyone got the thrill? of landing in 28G36 knot
winds at Ottumwa Iowa. Needless to say, landing roll
was nearly non-existant. After gassing up at
4.45/gallon (ouch), we pulled birds into hanger and
headed to town before a major downpour began...good
timing. Dinner at a local steakhouse followed
several
draft beers at 2 for 1 prices. We trust all will
sleep
well at the Ottumwa Hotel after a fun, but tiring
day.
The 4 female passengers were real troopers thru it
all. As James said "those aren't bumps-just lite
chop...Tomorrow we head to Custer, Wy. behind the
passing front to buzz around Mt. Rushmore, visit
Deadwood and Sturgis, S>D> and spend another restful
nite. More to follow. Enjoy the 1st pix. RenoRed.
Now that's room service! Choose from over 150,000
