When flying is taking over driving!
Today (the 3rd of July), I was driving from Bentonville, AR to Memphis, TN to celebrate Independence Day with family and friends and I've realized something: in the plane, every pilot has develop a scan. A scan is a way of going from one instrument to the next (airspeed, altimeter, …) to check that the values are correct and that plane is still in the position where we want it!
So while I was driving, I got confused because suddenly after looking at the speedometer I was looking for another gauge to check. Of course, there were none to check but at the moment, I was looking for another instrument. Not sure which one but I couldn't find it!
I'm not sure what it means but probably that I need to get back on Earth for a little bit. Oh well, this is already planned like that as I am not planning to get in another plane in the next 4 days. A nice little break! ![]()
Living next to the Missouri state line, we crossed it and got a few fireworks that are illegal to purchase in the other States! Yes, the one that are requiring a launcher! We bought a few of them and had a very nice 4th of July that the kids of all ages (yeah that included me) really enjoyed! It was a blast to be able to launch these rockets and realize that one of the neighbor probably had the same idea because we ended up doing a nice friendly competition of Missouri fireworks for a good 30 minutes!
