Landed in Oconee County KCEU today. I really enjoy how Little Navmap has a dotted line that tracks your progress in real time. LNM coupled with my avionics really helps me find exactly where I need to land. The smaller airports were challenging today as there were 28kt winds tossing me around.
I find myself doing something very similar to you. I don’t think I am going to make very much progress at this rate if I am circling every town I come across learning about its history. I find it easiest to set the autopilot, switch between little navmap and google maps and pick out only the major attractions before I arrive. If I miss something at this point I don’t think I’ll be missing out as there is so much to see ahead of me.
How was your flight from Barter Island to Alert near the north pole? It seems you just barely made it and had to siphon the remaining gas from one side to the other? What would you recommend I do for that leg?
Also the flight you took in the beginning from Hopedale to Illulissat, Greenland. Was that mostly just about managing the ice? I am not seeing any airframe deicing capability. Should I just try my best to avoid clouds?
