Midwest/East coast trip, day 6

Day 6, Williamsport PA to Windsor Locks, CT

Another travel day today as we flew a fairly short 1.7 from Williamsport PA to Windsor Locks, CT. Initially we'd thought about hitting the New England Air Museum today but decided to put it on tomorrow's agenda since the rain will finally catch up to us. It was a nice flight and Windsor Locks was a reasonably busy place to get into.

Williamsport airport lies right next to a fairly long ridge line and the departure (as well as yesterday's arrival) was fairly bumpy. Once we get out of the vicinity of the airport, however, things were smooth. We did this leg VFR today as we once again needed another IFR chart but the local FBO at Williamsport didn't have it. Fortunately, we have the entire US VFR sectionals via Air Charts.

The FBO at Williamsport was a Piper dealer a long time ago:


Life Flight cranked up maybe 100 yards from us:
