We're Over the Moon (Pies) with Flight Planning!

We've spent the last few days getting down to the nitty gritty --- with charts, highlighters, rulers, spreadsheets..... and snacks.  And when the going gets tough, we're grateful to find ourselves Powered by Zingerman's Moon Pies!  (Zingerman's is a really cool place here in Ann Arbor!  Check it out:  http://www.zingermans.com)

Captain Kelly did all of the hard work you see on this latest project, one we're both very proud of.  And without Kelly's selfless, continued sacrifice, none of this would have been possible. Erin merely documented her extraordinary feat.  

Now, right here, you too can enjoy the fruits of our day's flight planning labor (well, Kelly's really -- she was PIC of this adventure):










 

Chartophelioma: a condition induced by excessive VFR flight planning and experienced only by commercial airline pilots:


As you can see, we've had a very productive few days of flight planning:  good food, good company, missing a few charts, but with the Garmin 496 and the Force of Mini Mo, we'll be fine....  Right?!

  1. Kelly and Erin,

    You have the best blog! Looking forward to seeing you again, and wish you a better outcome this year. Aileen Watkins says to tell you hello, and she also sends you her best wishes for a safe, fun, and successful race. Hopefully this year, you'll only finish behind #27! =D

    Linda
