How was your 1000 mile trip back from Copper State Perry?

Paul Lamar

Beautiful, couldn't ask for more perfect weather.  No wind, no more
than + or - 10 knots variation in ground speed. 130 knots, 150
mph average.

I departed DVT Sunday at 6:30 am, stopped
at PTV (Porterville CA) and MFR (Medford OR)
for fuel, arrived back at MMV at 5 pm.  Not
too bad to cover 1100 NM in one day with my
"slow" plane.

I am noticing some problems using 100LL,
I for one will be really happy when that stuff
goes away.  It doesn't even have to go away,
just wish more places had 80 or mogas.

Perry, just out of curiosity what problems are you encountring using 100LL.
I have approx 160 hours using the stuff and have not noticed any problems
(yet).
