Line Up and Wait
I can't believe this. I'm sitting here doing the initial planning for my long XC tomorrow morning and I just can't decide which route I'm going to propose to my instructor. Each of them has at least one cool place that I want to fly near / over and at least one airport I really want to visit...
I never could have imagined that I'd be in this situation! LOL
My first trip I have planned is AID->BAK->OXD->AID. I will get to actually fly over some of the hills that southern Indiana has to offer. The BAK-OXD leg is actually pretty sparse and I imagine will be beautiful this time of year.
The next trip I have planned is AID->AOH->VES-AID. Its a little more tricky as I have to deal with another class delta close to AID, but I'll get to fly near/over Grand Lake, St Marys and Grand Lake state park in Ohio. I imagine it will be beautiful. It's a fairly large (5 mile by 3 mile) lake that should be easy to find along my route.
The last trip I'm considering is just a bit longer. It's from AID->DNV->LAF-AID. It will be challenging because my first leg will take me north of Indianapolis and all of the traffic associated with that. Not to mention that Lafayette has the chance of being busy - so that will provide and opportunity to test my skills.
I just can't decide!
