April 18th, 2014. Good Friday day off. A good friend of mine and RV7A builder Jeff Vaughan is one the founding fathers of a newly opened still works. They had Grand Opening and he invited me as an official vodka tester or so he said.
Sometimes I am occasionally busy but I can quit everything for an adventure. Straight run to Pottstown Municipal airport was boring and I dotted my own route. Half of it was done in perfect VFR the other half - in super perfect. This was the route according to APRS.
Here I go hand flying "The Bottled Route" I had to cross local Mississippi twice.
Negotiated a touch of Class C airspace.
Avoided couple hills and towers and arrived at the destination. Pottstown Municipal airport N47 do you see a brick warehouse? That's where I am heading need to hold that heading good APRS beacons are hard to herd.
Parked at the only spot available.
An FBO girl questioned my intentions.
My taxi.
In 2 minutes I was about to enter the magic enterprise...
