Coast to coast

co...@mightycheese.com (Colin Summers) — Fri, 03 Aug 2007 23:22:49 UT

I dropped Adam in Maryland. This message will send when I arrive in
rhode island. This was a great cloud I saw over the long island sound,
which I will count as the Atlantic. So 971rd has made it ocean to ocean.

Hotel

co...@mightycheese.com (Colin Summers) — Fri, 03 Aug 2007 14:03:02 UT

Packing up. All good hotels (all our hotels) have these headboard wall
appliques. It's not part of the bed, it's part of the wall.

Meet me...

St. Louis! No arch in sight. Got into the hotel at 1am last night.

Okay. I was too jealous that Adam could upload photos from his phone
and I couldn't.
If you go to

you will see my photo stream and you should start seeing photos from
the trip.
We should be good to leave ABQ.

Well, we are down after about six hundred miles. We're in
Albuquerque, which I hope to be in only long enough to learn to spell
it without my spell checker prompting me. I will write the longer
story in a blog entry, but we're waiting for a part, a magneto, which
is one of two (redundancy is at the hear of aviation).

Double eagle airport, new Mexico.

The most incredible airport I have ever flown into. 11am landing.
We're having lunch.

New start

co...@mightycheese.com (Colin Summers) — Tue, 31 Jul 2007 14:54:37 UT

Ktoa is our start point. I flew down from SMO to pick Adam up.
Here Adam and ilya try to fit all the luggage into the plane.

Summer of Sky

co...@mightycheese.com (Colin Summers) — Sat, 28 Jul 2007 17:49:20 UT

February was the last time you heard from me. Six months later the
plane and I are both closing in on five hundred hours in the sky. As
usual, click on [link] and you'll get to the front
page of the blog.
I'm including a list of the posts new since the last note out.
Dec 30: The Virtual World in the Sky

Winter Flying

co...@mightycheese.com (Colin Summers) — Tue, 20 Feb 2007 17:00:29 UT

Okay, October 26 2006 was the last blog announcement.
I am not sure if the links work. You can always click on [link] and you'll get to the front page of the blog. I'm including a list of the posts new since the last note out.
Oct 29: A Look from the Outside

autumn update

co...@mightycheese.com (Colin Summers) — Thu, 26 Oct 2006 16:32:00 UT

Blog readers:
Wow, that was hard work. You last heard from my on Jul 27. Since then I took the FAA written exam for the instrument rating, flew a lot (over thirty hours in October) and took the practical exam for the instrument rating.
Here is a new idea for the blog announcement, this is a link to the last entry you read (if you only read when there are announcements):

The Usual Blogging Lull

co...@mightycheese.com (Colin Summers) — Sun, 30 Jul 2006 04:32:11 UT

Okay, the last post announced was May 16, so there are quite a few
since then. Like in the blog itself, most recent are at the top,
which shows where you would need to hunt down to in order to read
what you might have missed.

blade...@gmail.com — Tue, 16 May 2006 17:23:17 UT

just some photos

blade...@gmail.com — Mon, 06 Mar 2006 06:04:08 UT

I really don't like Apple's new web authoring software, iWeb, but I
tried it out with a bunch of photos. This is the trip Adam and I took
to Arizona on Saturday:
