Hmmm... looking at my terminal area chart right now... I could pull it off. I would have to stay under 4000 feet anyway to keep clear of Sky Harbor'* airspace. Looks like the peak of that mountain is almost 2400 feet, and there'* also a sizeable radio or cell tower in the vicinity.

Actually, I just realized I flew over your area on Tuesday morning. We headed up to Lake Pleasant, then turned southeast for Squaw Peak, which looks to be just a little south of you. I would have passed just to the west of your neighborhood at about 5000 feet, because we were lining up to transition over Sky Harbor'* airspace.

Squaw Peak is straight south...I can see it dead ahead from the driveway. The mountain to the west is Stony Mtn. IIRC.

Don't get me wrong... I'm loving every minute of it. I'm just having a hard time realizing that I don't have near as much free time anymore. I'm about to sit down and study for an important test that I have to take this afternoon, and then I fly sometime after 8pm.

Bob, there will come a day when I can head over to your place and screw around with the cars. I'm just not sure how soon that will be. However, in a couple weeks I'll be certificated to carry passengers, so if you want to see Phoenix from the air let me know . If I'm going to be flying anyway, I might as well take someone with me!
