En-Route
I turn to the infinite wisdoms of the Interwebs...Heading down this week from KWVI to KPSP - Palm Springs for business and looking for some been there done that advice on best route. In studying the sectional, kinda looks like the most "direct" route would be from KWVI, over Tehachapi Pass (KTSP), down towards Hesperia (L26)then across Banning Pass to KPSP.
Been through the LA basin quite a bit over the Tejon pass, but never crossed further east to know what is the best practical route...or is through the LA basin then east to KPSP a more practical route?
Will be flying a 182 VFR with no O2 mid afternoon and was gonna shoot for 7500'. Will be landing at KPSP and bite the bullet on the fees as the site I am going to is just down the road from the airport.
I have been keeping an eye on winds and forecasts through Banning Pass and does not look too nasty so far.
Am I on the right path or is there a better option?
