Flew the Cardinal KJTC - WINW on Sat. 11/25. Nice calm flight that took 1.0 hrs. Firstly the airport is named Winslow Lindbergh Regional Airport and there is a big hangar from the 1930's. The hangar has TAT printed on it from the Transcontinental Air Transport which Charles Lindbergh helped design the route across country. Winslow was a stop on the first commercial transcontinental air transport airline that flew Ford tri-motors. Information link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcontinental_Air_Transport
We walked the mile to town and stopped at the "standin on the corner" site made famous by the Eagles. We had lunch at a very good mexican food restaurant and then walked over to the La Posada hotel/restaurant/museum. It was also built in the 1930's and is nicely restored and historic.

Return flight was only 45 min. with the tailwind. Would recommend a stop in Winslow if you're ever in that area. We'll take the taxi to town the next time though.
