    My best trips as a new aviator were picking up planes with my CFI! Vern and I went to Kokomo, IN (1970 Piper Cherokee 180) and Dayton, OH (2006 Cirrus SR20 G2, my current whip!) Good times checking out the FBO's. My favorite is in Lexington, KY! Maybe next year we go Weast!

    Hey Lew Dix Aviation, met the infamous Rodge today at Welshpool airport in mid Wales (UK) today in the also as famous N3D. Asked about your funny sidekick, Rodge immediately said "you mean otto"!!! Lol. I meant the other sidekick Gareth.....the young lad then said "thats my Dad"....... Great to see them visiting my local field. Great fella......he didnt do your Welcome to the sky on departure tho!! Needs more encouragement.

    Just curious. Was there a GoPro mount on the ceiling right behind you there already or did you put one there for the trip. I would love to mount a GoPro in that location in some of the planes I rent but, 1. the trim is old and cracking, and 2. I don’t think the school will like it. It seems like you mount a lot of cameras in planes that you don’t own. Any tips. (I hope this is not one of your trade secrets you can’t share. Lol). Always enjoy the videos. Thx

    One thing that bothers me (as a non pilot myself) is that "cross country" has come to have a very loose definition of 50 nm. Cross country should be something that actually covers some ground (so to speak), and going long distance, similar to this video. This is true cross country
