Where in the world is N211PH?

Pawtucket, Rhode Island

759 miles traveled and 5280 miles remaining


John left Oshkosh at 8:45 am this morning and flew to Pawtucket, Rhode Island, where he will attend a course on crossing the North Atlantic Ocean with veteran ferry pilot and flight instructor, Ed Carlson. Ed has a website FlyThePond.com. John has gathered a lot of information, but this course will help him interpret the weather systems and also give him some additional equipment and information tools to make this journey more uneventful. I talked briefly with John after he landed, and he was already meeting with Ed.

Praise the Lord! I just got word that the visas are now completed. They are being FedEx shipped to John right away. He should have them tomorrow, Friday, morning. Next stop - St. John's, Newfoundland.

Praise the Lord! We are so proud of you John. Katie watched the video clip at church tonight and said, "It just makes me feel so proud that that is my Dad." Our love, thoughts,and prayers are with you every day.
