Video of someone flying coast to coast

Gotta do this one day: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8H_7RQr_JE

Amazing video, love all the FBO shots.

The smile on his partner's face really does say it all. Flying is awesome!

Coast to coast in under 12 minutes!?!?? Now I really have to try this!

All kidding aside - my friend Mike and I have the same wish to do this one day.

Yes you should, I've done it 6 times in various iterations (never quite coast to coast, but close enough for my book) and each time has been a new adventure. It's much more challenging in a C150/U (where the VOR's won't pass a VOR check). Water towers are useful for verifying your position.

I did it one way. I'm partner on a Cardinal that we bought at KAPV (California) and flew it to KLZU (Georgia). It was a fantastic experience.
