GIV over the Rockies heading to Montrose, CO
Wish I was logging the hrs.
 
Today my student (working on Complex endorsement) that I was planning on doing pattern work with, asked if we could go someplace random and suggested Nashville, TN for lunch. Weather looked tough but possible for the first half so we gave it a try.

The price to pay for not flying a FIKI'd airplane in Illinois. This was after 50nm or so of real (but careful, two piloted, and safe) scud running, and the start of a 180nm stretch like this until it broke up around EVV

Downtown on the way out

It ended up being a fun trip and a good (expensive) experience for us. We even managed to talk to Carrie Underwood for 45 seconds or so at the coffee and cookies stand. Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton were there too, but I was busy checking weather while my student had all of the fun.

gotta let us know when you are coming next time
