Tuesday June 17 PM
We're tired tonight but happy. We flew from N10 to Frankfurt KY in 3 hours and 40 minutes, with about an hour in solid IMC over the hills in soutwestern PA and northern MD. We ate great salads for lunch at Applebee's and took off again. We flew full throttle on this leg for two more hours and landed in Decatur after a high speed pass at 500 feet that the tower was kind enough to let us do. We intended to continue on until Iowa, but after flight planning and getting gas which took us almost an hour we decided we were too tired and called it a day. The airport lent us a "crew" car and we checked into the Decatur Conference Center for the night. We plan an early start in the am and hope to fly to Iowa, South Dakota, and then to our next to last stop in Montana.
