>From September 26 to October 20, 2018 we flew our airplane (Blanquita)
from St. Augustine, FL to Las Vegas, NV and back. We got to see a show
in Las Vegas, fly over the Gran Canyon, attend the Albuquerque
International Balloon Fiesta while visiting friends and family along the
way.
The weather wasn't perfect the entire time. We had to divert almost 75
miles to avoid thunderstorms on a flight between Alabama and Texas. We
actually had to stay a few days extra in El Paso, TX while a hurricane,
Hurricane Rosa, passed over Arizona. We had to leave Albuquerque, NM a
day early since a severe cold front was headed there. But overall, it
was a great trip.

Yes it had that "issue" I also remember that the tail was held on by one
big bolt. We called it the "Jesus Bolt" because if it broke you would meet
Jesus.
BTW: The Nomad is the most effective counter-narcotics aircraft ever used
by US Customs Aviation Operations. It has legendary status with those of us
that flew counter-narcotics missions.
