My overnight stop is at an airport west of Atlanta where a fatal mid-air occurred this past month. Other than going down in mountainous terrain, a mid-air is what I fear most about flying. While in Florida, I might add landing in a swamp with alligators to that list.
I hate driving to Florida because it’s a long drive and I find it’s hard for me to stay awake while driving. As the flight will require six refueling/ pit stops, I hope to not fall asleep at the stick. However, the time spend flying will equal that of a road trip to Florida. A J-3 Cub is a very slow aircraft.
I recently watched the movie Sully to get me in the right frame of mind. However as Ernest Gann wrote, Fate is the hunter.  |
With that positive and up-beat attitude.... what could happen?
Usually I root for the Noles.... next week.... go Gators!
