“You are the sky, everything else is just weather”


We left Abilene early since we had to make up for our Day 3 weather delays:

It was the best day for flying so far. Cloud cover was low so we flew 1,000 ft above the clouds and took a timewarp Gopro video (Very Cool!):

I was in heaven...literally:

First fuel stop was Ennis Municipal. South of Dallas, Ennis is another town founded by the railroad. Most towns in Texas are linked to the railroad or cattle trails. I grew up in Ft. Worth also referred to as cowtown back in the day:

This trip had storms following us each step of the way. After fueling in Shreveport, we ran into this weather pattern:

Outside of Shreveport. You can see the storms behind us:

One more fuel stop before leaving Louisiana: Taking off at Vicksburg Tallulah Regional:

Clear skies...everyone is smiling:

Fuel stop in Mississippi at Hattiesburg Bobby Chain Municipal. Taking off for Alabama and then on to Florida:

Crossing into Alabama:

Landed at Bob Sikes Regional in Florida:

As it was late when we arrived, we had to take off in the dark heading for Panama City Beach:

Final landing of the day was Northwest Florida Beaches International (Panama City Beaches):

On the final day, we crossed 5 states to make it to Florida in 4 days. That concludes our adventure from California to Florida. Hope you enjoyed it! If you are ever in Florida come see the Icon in Key West...
