Today Jan and I continue (as friends ) our short series, on another real-life flight, this time VFR to Big Bear. Welcome aboard! If you've used both of these market-leading products, what are your experiences and opinions? Wayne, GeezerGeek Pilot

All I can say is that in 2016 this was a very doable trip... an...

rwLYhi86f00 Looking for a weekend adventure? Álamos, south of the border, just might be a great fit. This small foothill village is one of a few dozen Pueblos Mágicos and known throughout Mexico for its authentic charm.
