Here's the story, enjoy! Also a neat video a friend made of my flight track along with the afternoons Satellite loop DeQuincy.pdf

The wind was 17G24 I think when I landed at DeQuincy around 7:10, but quickly calmed down to about 10 as the sun set. I had tailwinds ranging from 25-40 mph for the flight. Rick, who lives at the airport, gave me a ride into town for some food and I got a room at a hotel. My chase crew arrived around midnight and we drove back to Wichita today, arriving around 8 PM. It was a pretty epic adventure. Here is the gps trace of my flight: http://www.onlinecontest.org/olc-2.0/gliding/flightinfo.html?dsId=3523858

Matt asked me to chime in here. I had a LOT of fun flying his Mooney and am very grateful that he let me use it as my own for nearly a week. Before this experience I had about 2 hrs in Mooneys, spread out over at least 5 years, one in an F and one in a J. Now I have nearly 25. Matt got a really clean and well maintained airplane. Every little detail on it just works the way it is supposed to. I was impressed and pleased that it seemed to get book speed while sipping fuel. checking him out in it was fun and a good experience for both of us as we immersed ourselves in all things Mooney for about 2.5 days.
