I drove out to Long Island to go flying with some local plots:

Flight #116:

Flying from Jones Beach Island to Fire Island:

Flying back across:

Coming in for a landing:

Touchdown:

I would have flown for much longer but there was a good bit of turbulence, probably due to wind shear.  Local pilots tell me it dies down towards sunset.  If I ever decide to drive all the way out there again, I’ll come later in the day.
