Dan, You could make this even more interesting if you included block to block speeds and fuel burns. Jg

Wind was 240. Runway 28 was the favored runway. Everything else would have been either tailwind or stronger crosswind.

Drat , being an old Mooney owner, I like when they can strut their stuff. Even my Bravo would give me 12 nmpg at 185 KTAS.

Dan, Loved the video, thanks so much for sharing, what an adventure and to get to do it with your Dad in priceless. The Astoria area is so beautiful. Hope you guys did fly some south down the coast to see the rock formations they are incredible. Also drove the long bridge over the Columbia River over to Washington. There is a neat museum there that shows a lot of the history of the area along with the perils that all saliors face plying those waters. Really, really enjoyed this makes me want to do it.

Great video - thanks for sharing
Quick question....when you are approaching the runway I hear a announcement of what runway and feet remaining. Is that from the Garmin ?
Thanks Wayne
