Tandy,
Aside from a few MOAs that can be easily negotiated by altitude
selection, it looks like a pretty simple route. Be sure to check the
weather carefully (use flight watch) and you should not have any
problems. I've flown thru most of those areas, but not in a Coupe, and
the route doesn't seem to present any special problems given good
weather. Watch the weather across Pennsylvania. The terrain is rough and
with deteriorating or bad weather it's hard flying. Back in the days
before IFR, a lot of planes were lost between New York and Pittsburgh.
If you are planning on flying after dark, I would do that only between
Ohio and Kansas. In the Bridgeport area you've always got the potential
for fog and low visibility; while the hills of Pennsylvania can whip up
some dandy thunderstorms.
It sounds like a great flight, hope you get a chance to make it.

Guys - I have been considering a trip in my Coupe to the East Coast,
Bridgeport, Conn to be specific, from Kansas City. As this is all
uncharted territory for me, are there any special issues I should
consider before take off (probably some time this spring)?
