One of the best parts about having a plane and flying it constantly is the ability to just fly on a weekend or a slow day to grab a meal nearby.
On Memorial Day, we decided to fly from KCDW to KUNV. While we were originally supposed to fly to KBID for breakfast and a beach day, that didn’t end up happening due to the cold front that had been sitting in the area for a few days.
The forecast kept improving with every TAF and we decided to depart from KCDW at 10am. Upon departure, we were in the clouds at roughly 2000 feet and were IMC for nearly 12-15 minutes. The views were absolutely stunning.
While it did get a bit bumpy closer to our destination, it was a pleasant flight with very few other planes in the area.
We grabbed a crew car from the FBO, drove to Cracker Barrel for a very late breakfast and then repeated the same process for our arrival into KCDW.
Overall - a fantastic flying day and a good get away for the day - thanks to the ever improving weather.
