The US-50 trip continues on Leg 8, beginning in Cincinnati (I67), touring the Queen City and heading further into Ohio before beginning a climb into the Appalachians of West Virginia. Along the way we discuss the effect of industry on the people who live along the Ohio River and the importance of the railroad to both combatants of the US Civil War, ending the day with a soft-field mountain-strip landing in Romney, WV (WV06).
Here is the simplified flight plan. Note that it mostly outlines the primary course, but may not include any of our “detours” and the intermediate airports do not necessarily reflect the airports we visit. The highway is the guide!
