Nice flying Wag-man!
Don't feel bad--my last 52-mile fight on my T2C 144 took me nearly 5 hours!
Another pilot in a Sport 2 155 flew the same distance along an easier route and took like a half hour longer than me. Sometimes it's faster to go by bicycle!

You can plan your weather that far out? lucky you!
Ours changes day by day...or less. It's all a big guessing game anyway.

every time I thing about the Wagner brothers I'm remained what great survivors they are with all the interesting hobbies and never giving up on a set goal but I can't deny the thought about the wood chipper in "Fargo" (ND) either...
