~ 166 Airports, Fields, or off road (4 Countries- hopefully more soon :)
If you put all your airports/off airports on SkyVector, you can make a cool map of the places you've been. These are mine:
In North American Continent (US, Mex, Canada, Hawaii)
In AUSTRALIA (MegaFauna 2014, etc)
ALL (get's a little crowded in this view)

It's not "Prop Wash" that is the problem. WING TIP vortices are the BIG Deal

Thanks Dave G & Ken for commenting about vortices on YFT's movie
Reminded me to post this graphic photo of the wing tip vortices off just a crop duster (heavy and slow-- the worst !!!). Prop wash aint nothin' compared to tip vortices. This one is big enough to swallow a trike wing.

That is a great picture XC! Hey did you get my PM?
Thanks ULT !! Oh man, I didn't see you emailed me. Got it now and responded. Great to hear from you
