We're getting closer and closer to first flight and all the information we got was very relevant and useful. Everything covered was more or less tailored to flying the Legacy and one point that we took home was that the couple hundred mile trips we're used to will change to a thousand mile trips. So everything including weather, trip planning and GPS operation means more for safe flight. Josh Brungardt came down from Lancair and outlined the numbers and operation for safe pattern entry and flying along with slow flight characteristics and stall behaviors. They both covered emergency scenarios and got us thinking of how we need to be prepared for anything that could go wrong in such a fast plane. It was a great seminar and I'd encourage any of us to participate in ones that come up in the future. Thanks Pete and Josh, Don Barnes Legacy 198
