[COMPLETE] I-95 Cross-Country: Miami FL to Houlton ME

Leg 4: Lowcountry Regional (Walterboro SC) to Lumberton Regional (Lumberton NC)

This trip took longer because of all the altitude changes to try and stay VFR. IRL and in certain circumstances in the sim, a pop-up IFR could have been filed, but I was passing through multiple Approach sectors and the option never appeared. The weather was closing in at Lumberton and winds aloft had me hook around to the east for an RNAV arrival - 138 nm 01:36:00 enroute.

Departing Lowcountry:

Mucho lightning! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Visual checkpoint - passing Lake Moultrie - you can see the canal that passes under SC45 and connects to the larger Lake Marion; Moultrie eventually empties itself into Charleston harbor and the Atlantic passing by famous Fort Sumter:

Checkpoint - The Pee Dee River - no chuckling please:

Weather’s closing in around me, this is about the time I started going low to stay VFR:

Made it to Lumberton with clear conditions - passing over the city and I-95:
