Hello IFC! Recently, I have taken my discovery flight in a Cessna 172. I absolutely loved it, and that made me get into general aviation more. So starting today, I will be touring the United States in a Cessna 172. I will be visiting most big cities in the USA, as well as some smaller ones. Instead of flying into the big hub airports, I’ll make this realistic by flying into GA airports near the hub airports. It’ll probably take a while, but it’ll be a fun challenge! All of the routes that I do will be below.
