Picking up our Diamond DA40!!!

Our adventure leaving LAX-DFW and then going to Addison, TX (KADS) to pick her up and fly her back to our home airport Brackett Field in La Verne, CA (KPOC). We made a few fuel stops, spent the night in Albuquerque, New Mexico, then left the next day to come home and fly over the Grand Canyon! Enjoy!

We got a DA62. We were the first ever DA62 to land at St Barth’s :)

Congrats. What year is your DA40?

[@meridianpilot9813]

Looking into getting one. Just passed my checkride few weeks ago. Then wanted to get IR

[@MAGApepe]

nice... did you just purchase it? what year is it ? i see the kap 140 :)

[@twinaviation4024]

Yes, we landed about 2 weeks ago, just took a while for us to get the video uploaded! It was such a cool experience flying it more than halfway across the country, and I don't even have my PPL yet! We took our instructor along with us so that we can get some training in it on the way home rather than having it ferried!
