Tripacer Cross Country, Tucson to Pueblo

7 hours of flying across some of the most desolate rugged terrain this country has to offer. 600 mile trip, with "new" plane. Returning to flying after a 4 year hiatus, updated physical and BFR. Great flight, beautiful scenery. Saw an airport in Winslow designed by Charles Lindburg, which was fun to imagine his exploits. Brave or Crazy? I say brave.

I also fly a Tri-Pacer out of Sierra Vista and have gone to many of the same places. Great vids, nice airplane, love the color.

@timmonst70 Thank you. I sold it last July to a SWA pilot who bought it for his daughter to take lessons in.

Awesome Video- Your PA22-150 is a beauty! I have my own but she's a 20 footer. I love flying her though.

@DWBeans Thanks. Not sure what you mean "20 footer" I have fun in this little bird for sure. It's my second PA-22, first was 160hp, and i don't see much difference.

Nice vid; you must have some awesome upgrades on it.........

...... the TriPacers I've flown have been so noisy that I haven't been able to hear the music in the background!! ;o)
