Touchdown! Greaser!
I enjoyed my trip earlier this week so much, I did another one on Saturday, this time in a borrowed 182. I don't have much time in a 182, so my landings weren't great at first, but nothing broke, and by the end I was doing pretty good.
Stats:
9 airports (7 new to me)
3 hours
362 miles
1 soft field - with phone call on short final LOL
1 more enjoyable flight around S Florida
Airports:
X06 - Arcadia - fuel stop
09FA - Placid Lake - A small airport community with a very interesting approach (see photo below and video)
2IS - Airglades
KPHK - Pahokee? No idea how to spell it
X58 - Indiantown - A huge grass runway, a little rough, but no major ruts
KOBE - Okeechobee
KSEF - Sebring - I used to race motorcycles here, cool to watch cars running the track from the air
KAVO - Avon Park - Nice big airport, but the taxiways are in pretty bad disrepair
X05 - Home
Short final at Placid Lake is a little claustrophobic
