Day 2

After an early start we headed off towards Albuquerque and began to see our first terrain. Some were content to practice their visual navigation skills in this new terrain, while others were fascinated (perhaps overly so) with the VOR. Mr. Kornelson in fact, was so fascinated that when the VOR flipped from TO to FROM he and his crew videotaped the event and were heard cheering with delight by several other airplanes. We landed in Sandia East outside of Albuquerque and to our delight, found that it was a residential airport.
We discovered this by taxiing off the runway and onto a road. The FBO (Fixed Base Operator) operator managed to navigate us through the streets and to the FBO. Some houses on these roads had hangars attached, and some houses simply were hangars that people had converted. When we went to leave this field we discovered that HXS (one of our planes) would not start. The delay was a faulty magneto, which put us several hours behind schedule. We had a short flight to Eagle II on the west side of Albuquerque and then on to Flagstaff AZ where we were greeted by the cold white stuff again.
