I feel the same way, Pat, but I can't be out there beating the drums, or people would think I'm showing off. Anyhow, it's great advertising for the SOAPA meeting, and will hopefully push some people who might be on the fence. And the flight down to the Keys is indeed beautiful, but those who've flown over the Bahamas will tell you that it's even prettier. Finally, whenever you come this far south, there is a very nice scenic route into Miami. You can read about it and see a chunk of Sectional with the route marked on it at
www.ConsultResearch.com/miasce.htm but basically you fly south over the water just east of Miami Beach, then you cross Miami Beach, and then head south again, with Miami Beach on your left and the skyscrapers of the City of Miami on your right.
