We a brand new four eight. Gb it only had ten hours on it beautiful helicopter. Well-equipped had garmon six fifty in it. A dsp weather traffic all all the good stuff that you'd want in a modern aircraft so the flight don was great beautiful weather cavu a five and i thought wow this is pretty neat and that four eighty is a single pilot with four passengers right correct and a range of roughly five hundred miles or so.

Through the middle of the state and south of it was beautiful.

I realized that this was not good weather. And i didn't want be pushed into flying into it but as the afternoon wore on it actually started to improve. It looked like the line was going to break up a little bit. And there was going to be some some gaps in the weather. My goal was to get to chicago. My sister lives in chicago. And i figured if i could get there i could overnight in chicago and i could get ahead of that. Weather weather was gonna move north. If you looked at the progress that weather was gonna move north.
