Flight School: Day 14

First solo cross country done. It was pretty easy, although my gyroscopic compass kept moving off and the magnetic compass is worthless unless you're sitting still, so I had to go by dead reckoning on the way there to sharpen my skills and GPS on the way back because I'm a lazy SOB. My destination was the Hernando County airfield in Brooksville, just north of Tampa's Class Bravo airspace. Both landings there and back were fine, but I got stuck for a little bit on the ground because I had a momentary retardation onset while trying to figure out which runway other pilots were using (it's an uncontrolled airport, so pilots just do whatever the heck they want and take off from whichever runway they want, as I did once I was sure no one would come down on me as I ascended). The weather reports I got all said visibility was 10 miles, but when I got there is was pretty bad, no more than 6, and I'm only allowed to fly in 8 minimum. Oh well, I got the job done.

I'm at UCF for tonight because I had a meeting with some people for my job. My extended night cross country trip is tomorrow. Any destination suggestions (must be more than 100 miles from Kissimmee, but not much more than that because I don't feel like paying more than I have to)?
