one way ticket from KHOU-KBDL.
I am really looking forward to doing this flight. The gentleman I will be flying with seems like a real stand up guy, and I expect both him, and myself to learn a lot.
Someone asked before about my times in the airplane...A little over 500 hours in Cheetah's and Tiger's. My mechanic, who has been working on Grumman's since the early 80's, is close friends with the mechanic who'm as done the prebuy, and I trust his judgement. That said, this specific airplane is still unfamiliar, and since I will also be giving primary instruction to a student, I will try and do the flight in Day VFR conditions as
much as practical.
The flight will be flown via way of Taunton, MA-NYC (hudson cordor)-Indianapolis, IA. Second leg, Indianopolis-Houston. Anyone recommend any good fuel/food stops in between either NYC-Indianapolis/Indianopolis-Houston?
Thanks
