They’re use to little airplanes. Lift Academy has about 50 diamonds aircraft based there for training. The only time I’ve had issues getting in to IND is during FedEx Happy Hours! LOL Hit me up next time you’re in Town! Rick’s Boat Yard Cafe is walking distance from Eagle Creek FBO

I agree.
Next month I am taking a 172 into KLAS for couple of days. Its been a dream and bucket list item for me.

I thought they recently "banned" little planes to LAS because of construction of a runway. Maybe that was just a few weeks and is over now.

They had a notam like that a few months ago but then it disappeared. I haven't checked if it's back.

A couple skyline pics from last night.
All the Canadian forest fire smoke hasn't made it as far as central NH this am. Had a nice local flight and this is (mostly) Lake Winnipesaukee but with so many up here I threw in some for free.
Took a Lifeline passenger across Missouri this afternoon. Here's Lake of the Ozarks from 11K:

Did some hangar chores. Sweeping, airplane debugging/cleaning, and car detailing
The return trip of our first cross country with the Comanche. At one point, I saw 200 mph over the ground 
2 lifeline flights in a week? well done!
What was the challenging aspect of today's adventure?
I'm attempting to do one per month, so I had to make up for planting season.
There were some storms north of Memphis that I had to pick around; nothing too serious, but it required some thought, which is my favorite kind of flying. Had some awesome views.
Pickup was at M01, which is 3800'. That doesn't sound short on paper, but it's in a bowl surrounded by terrain and levees, with trees and buildings on top of that. Add in full fuel tanks (my own fault, granted), two passengers, my fat butt, and 85 degree temps, and it's a 20 degrees flaps and Vx climbout kind of scenario.

Had to divert to Amsterdam enroute from Berlin to JFK due to some pneumatic and anti ice issues last week. It’s never good to see the cowls open

20 NM flight for a doctor's appointment. Common people would drive but I'm not common people. I'm a pilot.
Middle of nowhere. No noise abatement procedures to worry about. 9 min flight, 3 mile walk around the cornfields, 30 min wait to see the doc, then a couple of practice approaches back home. Is this real life?

Aerial visit today to some of the enchanting and other-worldly mountains southwest of Phoenix ...
Haha, reminds of the time I made a 20 minute flight to an airport within walking distance to a Petsmart so I could buy cat litter and say, "I flew shopping" instead of just driving to the Petsmart that was like a 10 minute drive away from home lol.
