Lawrence and I spent Friday resting up after the 12 hrs of flying. We did not too bad with the wind push flying the actual 760 miles flown in 12.6 hours. I burned about 218 litres of fuel which amount to 3.7 gallons per hour. We got a vehicle from my cousin in Steinbach and enjoyed dinner and supper un Steinbach. The people at Harv's are great hosts. They do say that the number of pilots that visit Steinbach South are very few. I think it must be the best kept secret in Southern Mb. We have water, access to showers, limited food ( we have it with us ) and a great runway and service area that is way better then some you would see at larger airports.
I have a wedding to attend on Saturday and it looks like the good weather that had been forcast may be changing. At this point Joe may still be coming from Lethbridge. More tomorrow.
