wiguy Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 I did Daytona twice and KISM once the last two years from WI. I mostly go GPS direct, adjusting as need be for airspace and possibly weather. I like a nice straight line. Of course one isn't likely to cut through ATL or ORD class 'B' during high time. Air-Nav and 100LL.com are great for looking over fuel stops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 To skip ATL, file fir HEFIN or overfly MLJ, they're only 10-15 nm apart. Once north of ATL, go as direct as possible. Plan your stops for cheap fuel. There should be many places running specials for Osh, some including discounted/free food as well as discounted avgas. To get out of Florida, you'll likely be assigned V3 until Daytona or Ormond Beach. I flew that route down to FXE and back, and since my 430W doesn't do airways I just plugged in the identifiers where the airway turned. Coming back, I was expecting it, but going down I had to manually enter the next waypoint one at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piloto Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 The previous owner of my M20J passed away at EAA OSH. I ferried it back from KOSH direct to KFXE in 7hrs non-stop. The plane had long range tanks (100 gals). Quite a trip. I bought the plane from the widow two weeks later. José 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiguy Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Passing on at Oshkosh? That's a bummer, maybe as good of place as any though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrBill Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 When I went up 2 years ago, I went direct CLT- INDY and got gas just N of Indy ( TYQ ). Then I filed around the South side of Chicago and up the west side where I picked up the inbound process to OSH (Boiler V227 Pontiac Rockford). On the way back just about the reverse route except I got gas just W of CINCI (I34 Greensburg). Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
