    A thing that happened (And why I owe TecProtb a lifetime supply of free beer)

    Northernmost Airport with 100LL?

    You could always "get lost" northbound and claim the compass broke. You don't always get a chance to fly somewhere you want. I say do it. Need a passenger?

    My PP went the same way. It will pass and you will enjoy it. Remember no one remembers those that quit, only those that keep trying and pass.

    I am looking at a trip from RFD to Pensacola, Florida this summer in either a C172 or C182. Anyone done a similar trip or have any advise on airspace to avoid between the two? Planing on taking wife and 7 yr old daughter for a week.
