Well, I don't know if it was the "fresh" Los Angeles air or what Grin

but for the past few days I have been sick and reduced to staying in bed for a few days. (Thus the delay in getting this leg posted).
(This is also my first leg of my adventure done in FS2004)

After getting some rest and some good meds, I was feeling good enough to continue my adventure.
My goal today was to get to Tucson, Arizona.

Flight details for this leg...

Route map so far...

As I loaded up the Baron and got my flight plan loaded up, I noticed that it was a very grey and smoggy day....I was hoping it was clearer skys in Arizona!

Got my clearance and I was off! Beautiful airport but I could never handle the smog!

When I got to cruising altitude, the smog went away and it was partly cloudy but very calm air that made for a smooth ride!

On final for Tucson...Lovely town and cool little airport!

Just over the runway...nice little headwind made this landing the best one yet!

Parked and secured at the gate! Going to head out and check out a golf course that I flew over! Looked pretty nice so I think I will go play a round!

Thanks for watching! Comments/Suggestions always welcome!
