What did you do with your RV this weekend?

[turbo]

Last Monday was time to relocate my Rv from CT to FL. Filed fir from khfd to ksfq to get thru some layers in nyc area. Easy approach into sufolk co VA. Some low overcast thru NC, fuel stop at st Augustine FL, easy build ups to get around, home to stuart. A nice welcome home from the the tower folks.
Back home at the Rv hotel things have been totally redone. The old house has been removed and a custom home built. More to come later.
An indoor Pickleball court has been finished 5 minutes from the house. If you are into the fastest growing sport then you need to fly in play and spend a night. More to come later.
Great thread, keep flying those Young Eagles, don?t neglect your RV, keep them flying, Turbo Out.

Flew up the river with a virb360 mounted under the tail...

Really enjoyed watching that and "looking around."

The video technology available in the consumer market these days is just amazing.

Flew from Y14 to KPQN (Pipestone MN) and gave 5 kids rides as part of the EAA Young Eagles program. Always enjoyable!

Up just before sunrise Saturday morning, went to the hangar and almost finished the GDL-82 install on my -6A. Then did some -10 transition training for a friend just before noon. Flew to Reno (in a tube) so I could watch a friend go around the pylons in his -8 Sunday morning. What a great community we have!

I had a real mess going on with my day job and couldn't drop everything and run early in the week for Reno, but I saddled up early Saturday morning out of west Texas, wheels up at 6am IFR non-stop to Carson City NV and was in the grandstands in time for the second Sport heat 3C coming down the chute at about 11 am local. The flight west into Carson was great at 14,000' smooth and cool, watching the sun come up over New Mexico.

Couple of great days at the races seeing old friends and watching some amazing things come out of the Sport pits, then back home again on Monday morning. Departed IFR at 15,000' out of Carson City at 7:30 local and landed back home in west Texas at 4pm, beating the cold front that was moving into Reno by maybe an hour and avoiding the thunderbumpers in New Mexico by about the same margin - and sneaking through the POTUS TFR over Albuquerque before it went hot.

Oh yeah - I crossed 500 hours on my airplane on the way home too, since first flight in February of 2016. I'm still a lowtimer on here, but I'm making progress!

6.7 hours nonstop from 73XS into KCXP on Saturday burning 46 gallons, and 6.8 hours nonstop on the way back burning 47. I beat Southwest Airlines for that trip on both time and price on a 1000-nm true cross-country, and enjoyed it a lot more in the bargain. Love this magic carpet!

Here's a shot from cruise mid-way back home, my tracks are on flightaware since I was IFR. These long flights are kind of interesting, I started on NORCAL Approach, then Salt Lake Center, then LA center, then Denver center, then Albuquerque, and finally Ft Worth center before dropping down into Midland approach.

I flew from Atlanta to the AOPA fly in at Tullahoma TN. Toured the Jack Daniels distillery. Very interesting! Also spent a few minutes visiting one on one with Jack Pelton. That is about impossible to do at Oshkosh.

Stock & Barrel in Knoxville looks like great place. I was getting bored with Calhoun's

Took an impromptu trip to Plymouth MA. Took a shortcut via the Hudson River exclusion SFRA on the way home to get a few shots of the Big Apple.

I hadn?t been flying for a month. I?ve been knee deep in remodeling my kitchen so every weekend has been booked solid. I?m finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel so I decided that after work on Friday I?d see if I still remembered how to pilot my RV.

Initially I thought I?d hop over the hill to Watsonville for dinner. On my way there I decided instead to continue up the coast to Half Moon Bay since the marine layer was nowhere to be seen.

I walked over to Barbara?s Fish Trap and enjoyed a plate of fish and chips. It was a beautiful day!



I visited with some friends, hopped in the plane, jumped over the hill, and headed home. I got to fly near the Apple Spaceship.



The evening lighting was wonderful over SJC!



I remember reminding myself to not take this for granted. I?m so lucky to be able to do things like this! ?Normal? people don?t get to do things like this.

Keep pounding those rivets and become an abnormal person like me and the other RVers out there!
