As difficult as it was, this is what we had to leave to start our South American adventure. By difficult, I mean having to plow the snow off the ramp and talk the airport maintenance folks into sweeping a runway so we could take off. The decision was easy, somehow. Sure hope that for those left behind, March is cold enough so that there's still some ski season left on our return.
Uneventful trip to Scottsdale to pick up the owners of our steed, and today to Palm Beach, the staging point for the journey. Had our briefing by the organizers this evening, and launch to the south is in the morning.
For those of you that fly, check out the groundspeed and the fuel burn. Pretty efficient little bird.
