After the last meeting of the last day of my stay in the Bay Area what is better than flying a Cessna 172 from Reid Hillview (KRHV) to Half Moon Bay (KHAF). As my BFR has expired, David was my CFI doing the navigation while I was piloting and communicating (mainly KRHV TWR, KSJC TWR, then NORCAL then CTAF at KHAF -- alas my radio recording failed on me). Quite a 'mythic' airport and I was so lucky that weather was CAVOK :-) Another plane was doing T&G hence joining the downwind 30 was a little far away. I should also have extended the downwind to have a nicer view on the marina ;-) But, hey, flying low over the Pacific is probably not good anyway, so, be safe.
