Alright . . . I'll concede 45 miles, Big Sable point to Two Rivers, WI. At
9,000 msl, you don't lose the horizon for very long if the air is clear.-
With lake reporting talking to you every 10 minutes, it goes by pretty fast
. Plus, if you time it right, you could-ditch half-way across just about
the time the car ferry goes by! ;-)

Kidding aside, the northern round-about takes quite a bit longer even cutti
ng the corner Charlevoix to Beaver Island-to Manistique. 2 shorter over w
ater legs but more total time over water. Overall, the direct route-makes
sense for me,-provided-I've got the necessary confidence in my 582. I'
m not quite there-after this Spring's overhaul.-Under the circumstances
, I don't think I'll be coming this year.

Have a safe flight!

30, my ass! The shortest I've heard is about 65...real miles, not those sti
nking nautical miles. I'm heading out first light tomorrow, if it's not rai
ning. If it is, and I can fly around it, I will. I might just choose to fly
along the shoreline near Chicago, but early morning has a way of producing
fog down there. If that's a no-go, I can always fly down below 1900' and g
ive myself the willies by hugging Chicago's west side.
A friend of mine just flew to the Bahamas in his C172, and even he turned a
round on a trip across Lake Michigan because he lost sight of the horizon.
Nope, no water for this kid...but I can see why you mid-state folks like th
e water....if you had to go around, it'd be a l---o----n---g trip. See you
there?
