So cool!

I feel nearly as giddy about this BFR as I did about my first solo... no, nevermind, I was terrified on that one. About my checkride!

Wheee!

[cjsmith.livejournal.com]

Yes indeed!

After I've been up a couple of times maybe I'll be ready to take people for $100 hamburgers!

If you arrange to fly out to KCPU some weekend I will pick you up, feed you dinner, and ferry you back. :-)

(Besides which, how can you NOT like the ID? :-)

[cjsmith.livejournal.com]

I'll keep that in mind! Thanks! Probably later in the season though.

I also love San Carlos (right by Oracle): KSQL. :-)

Yay! Now, come get me. :-)

If I start now I'll see you in four or five days ;-)

[quasigeostrophy.livejournal.com]

Heck, I can drive that far in probably 3 1/2. :-)

[cjsmith.livejournal.com]

So can I; I've driven it in three (well, from Cleveland to here). In a car you don't have to stop for clouds or thunderstorms or icing, and you can pull over anywhere. :-)

[quasigeostrophy.livejournal.com]

Cleveland is farther than I am, so that's pretty good. :-)

Westbound is easy: you can drive sixteen hours a day and still sleep nine.
