Here we are! Now we get to visit Amy and Dave!
This was the biggest airport we have landed in. Just after we climbed out of our tiny plane, an F18 took off! But you know, they treat us just as well as the big passenger planes and fighter planes.
Just a comment on our flying. Rick always has "flight plan waypoints", spots he is flying towards. But most times we fly VFR - visual flight rules. That way we can veer off course if we want to go see something. Rick requests flight following from the controllers so they always know where we are and alert him to planes nearby or even when we got close to Mt Shasta. "Are you aware of the terrain and do you have it in view?"
