Off To Duluth

I fly to Duluth tomorrow and pick up my plane (N7654T) on Friday AM. I’ll be student-flying it back to Santa Monica immediately (weather permitting) with the aid of the Wings Aloft Cirrus-certified instructor and then go through the two-day training at home with him—-and my SMO-based instructor auditing. I’ll post if anything interesting happens.

Congrats! And of course, any and all impressions will be interesting to the peanut gallery.

Sounds like another “West Coast Fly-In” is in order soon (March/April?). I nominate SBP as the destination–nice eatery there. CCB: when do you anticipate having your license, or at least the comfort level to attend? Congratulations on picking up your “baby!” Keep us all posted!

Congrats! You are in for some fun. This time of year it should be an interesting trip … take something warm for DLH. I will be fun to have another Cirrus out here on the West Coast. Be prepared for “what type aircraft are you?” You will get that a lot in SoCal. Once you get settled and need a place to fly (as if you need an excuse) pick a spot for a West Coast fly in. I think Kevin recommended SBP, which is great and fine with me.

So, Chris … how’s the plane doing. Are you really based @ SMO. Tell us about your trip cross country … route, icing, experience, stops, and FBOs, etc.
