Posted by Dean What a difference a headwind makes.....Larry and I made it to Aurora in just a little more than an hour from Holdrege.......perfect flight.....smooth and fast. What a great weekend of flying.......at 3 pm Sunday I showed my plane to a perspective buyer and it may be sold........I may have done my last X country in the ole CHALLENGER CWS II!
