IFR from Goshen Indiana to Mackinac Island July 2nd of 2010 for a couple days for my wife, Pat's birthday. Plane is a Piper Saratoga Turbo. Overweight with fudge on the way home....
An hour 45 minute flight vs a 6-7 hour drive? Doesn't get any better than this.
Great video! I used to work on Mackinac Island AND I'm an aviation enthusiast (never got my private pilot's license though) so your video was perfect for me. Quick question -- it sounded like Chicago Center directed you up to 11,000. Any concerns about being above 10,000 without oxygen? Also would have loved to have seen the Mackinac pattern.
Would love to see other edited videos of fun trips! You two are really living the aviation life I read about in all the trades. Amazing...

belated happy birthday kid was there much truth to the song,, were you doing funny things ????????a bike is a good why to get around but at your age a horse and carage would be better but a bike is better for weight reduction for the trip home. you didn't say if the fudge was eatten or still in the box.HA HA {: ( }........
