I tend to fly fairly long distances in my airplane, and have done so for decades. Since I acquired my Cessna T310R in 1987, I've probably averaged around three transcontinental trips a year. I figure if you're going to own an airplane (with all the attendant fixed costs), you might as well fly it.I always find these long GA cross-country flights fun, but I'm constantly on the lookout for ways to make them even more enjoyable -- especially ways that involve new technology. Five years ago, for example, I switched from my venerable David Clark skull-crushers to the astonishingly comfortable and quiet ANR headsets from LightSPEED, and found to my delight that it was actually possible to fly coast-to-coast without getting a splitting headache!On my most recent coast-to-coast trip from California to Boston, I brought along three new electronic gizmos that proved to be really terrific, and that have become a permanent part of my long-cross-country flight gear.
