Lyncrest Airport - CJL5 - Winnipeg, Manitoba

CROSSING THE ATLANTIC

(A Mooney Returns to NA)
Heroic or Mundane?

The flight was superb, the aircraft fantastic, the educational experience beyond all that preparatory
measures, simulation and anticipation could provide. Total distance was computed at 6,036.5 miles and
total flight time was 22 hours. Total elapse time from Tarbes, France to Houston, Texas was 46.5 hours.
(Not too shabby for a small town, weekend pilot.)
