We flew my Mom up on the airlines last Friday for a quick weekend visit. She was supposed to fly back Sunday. Well, the two flights to Monroe, La were canceled Sunday. I decided since today would be good wx, I'd just fly her home from Jackson, Tn. I checked, and the first flight to Monroe this morning was also canceled!?!?!
She was a little nervous as this was her first time in the RV.
It was kinda windy as we loaded up.
After we took off, things settled down for a smooth-as-glass flight at 8500'. She was amazed at the view out of the bubble canopy and wasn't claustrophobic as feared.
It was a beautiful flight down.
As we decended into her hometown of Rayville, La, we circled the house a few times before finally landing. The first thing she did was get on her cell phone to brag about what a wonderful flight she had. We then went to lunch where she said she couldn't wait 'til next time.
On the flight back to Tn, I was thankful for the time I was able to spend sharing the wonders of flight with my Mom. A tiring 7 hr drive turned out to be an enjoyable hour and half flight. What wonderful machines!!!
