Leg 1 of 3 - This flight was to take me to two new airports: Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, PA (KAVP) and Greensboro, NC (KGSO). Weather along most of the route of flight was forecast to be good VMC, but Greensboro was expecting some cloud cover at 5000 feet. The weather to Scranton was mostly clear with some popcorn cumulus just south of town.
Runway 4 is built up quite a bit and the approach lighting system is a long series of towers connected by a catwalk for servicing. I couldn't help but wonder if the folks doing the servicing had a problem with looking down. :)
The lineman showed up quickly enough and guided me to the parking spot right in front of the FBO. They topped me off in short order and we were off again for a direct flight to Greensboro.
Total time: 7.6 hours
