Flew to New Hampshire

Flight Time: 17.7 hours ... Total Engine Time: 328.0 hours

Build Time: 0.0 hours ... Analysis Time: 0.0 hours

My wife and daughter are in NH visiting our relatives, so I decided to fly the Zodiac out and visit them.  My wife had the camera so I don't have any pictures on the way to NH (there are pictures on the way back... see next log entry).  The first day I flew from Meadow Lake (00V) to Hastings, Nebraska (HSI) to Burlington, Iowa (BRL) to Rochester, Indiana (RCR).  Spent the night in my tent next to the airplane.  Next day flew to Napolean, OH (7W5) to Wellsville, NY (ELZ) to Concord, NH (CON).


Fuel prices ranged from $2.19/gal (7W5) to $2.80/gal (ELZ, a new record high price for me).  Now I remember why I buy my own auto gas at home!




Here is Wellsville (I took the picture on the way home).  Airport is at the top on a plateau above the city.



Weather was good except for some thunder clouds I had to fly around in IA.  Didn't have any problems with the plane, although I did buy a cheap toolkit at Walmart before starting the journey, just in case.


Now I can say I've flown the plane from coast to coast!
