3.7 & Sign-off In the Arrow

I finally finished! After 3.7 hours in the Arrow tonight, I'm finally good to go as far as insurance is concerned. The CFI and I flew from 5G7 to PKB (Parkersburg, WV) for some late lunch and then back via IFR. It was pretty clear in Bluffton, but about 30 miles east, the overcast started underneath us and continued all the way to PKB.

I was vectored by ATC onto the ILS 3 final approach course and flew it down to 1,300' where, 400' above the ground, I finally saw the lights. Sweet! Instrument approaches are always more fun when you're done with them. Very satisfying.

We ate and flew back and then did some t-n-g's to get the required time. It was good and I feel completely comfortable with the Arrow. Now...where to go...
