A little cross country action for Stacie!
On October 16, I completed my first little cross country trip (100nm) in 24 years. Sometimes I have moments where I’m a little unsure of myself until I conquer it and this was one of those times. I planned a trip to Yerington, down to Lake Topaz and up to Minden. I landed at Yerington for the first time. Then we continued on and I landed at Minden. The cool part was Jere and Chris invited me to brunch ( you never know who you will find in the air!) except the Taildragger was closed! So Jere says let’s go to Lake Tahoe! So I added yet another airport to my trip. I struggled a bit to figure out how to go into South Lake but managed a great landing! Brunch was excellent! Lastly, we headed back to Carson where I had my best buttery landing ever and used the opposite runway for the first time. A big thanks to Jeff Goodwin, Jere and Chris for all the encouragement. I’m so proud of myself today!
Congrats to Stacie! Figuring out a new airport on the fly like that is a skill indeed.
Also, I think we need some type of notification system for Airport Restaurant closures. What do you think?
