| Notes |
I flew a Mooney Rocket from
Stennis International, Ms. (KHSA) to Salisbury, Md. this afternoon
and managed to get over 300 Kts ground speed for a while. I've
attached a photo of the Aspen display which shows the ground speed,
TAS, and the winds. I've also included a photo of the yoke mounted
496 display showing the groundspeed, the location, and the current
weather system overview.
As you can see from the 496, I make this trip all the time;
about once
per month. This is the second fastest flight so far.
If I could have left earlier this morning it would have been
20-30 knots better, but this will have to do for now. ;-)
Here's the FlightAware.com record:

The total trip distance was 862nm non-stop.
