Pre-takeoff checklist
I would desperately like to plan some trips in my newly acquired '79 Tiger that will have a Garmin 430 when I get it back next week. I'm a capable 625 hour instrument rated pilot in Massachusetts. But when I look at planning a weekend trip next month I can't figure out how to actually pull it off so I hesitate to plan anything. I'm concerned about weather - what if I can't go? Jeez, most Fridays I'm not even sure if the weather will be good enough to go to Cape Cod for the weekend, let alone making reservations somewhere for next month...! So I hesitate, never make plans, and never go anywhere. Am I crazy? What am I doing wrong...? How do other people plan trips?
