Flying in the Haze
Here’s is the type of weather that we flew in today. Made a nice Cross Country (>50 miles) to Gainesville Airport. It was a nice trek. My flight buddy flew for 1.7 hrs and I took the plane home in about 1.6 hrs. Got landings in, even some w/ cross wind action. Got some rain too. Did a little “scud” running back into the airport with overcast being 800 feet. More to come on Monday.
Be careful out there man…..scud running WILL kill you. Not to mention flying at 800 feet is illegal over populated areas.
Thanks for looking out man. Populated is an over-statement here, but I was exaggerating about the scud running part. I definitely wouldn’t have gone flying alone w/o an instructor on this day.
