I started planning for this trip well over a year ago, with the goal of promoting the U.S. National Airspace System, shining a light on some of the amazing things this system gives us the freedom to do, and showcasing how the ICON A5 makes it not only possible, but fun.

I hope to be able to collaborate on this goal with sponsors who share my interest in the future of general aviation and creating the next generation of pilots.

Over the course of two months, from mid-June to mid-August, I will cover:

During the trip, I'll post video and stills to my social media accounts daily. These posts will let the audience follow along with the trip as it's happening to see not only the interesting places I visit and people I meet, but also the process of flying a small plane from one location to the other.

I'll be shooting additional video and stills at all the locations along the way - to be edited into a YouTube series after the trip is completed. 

This will provide an additional 2-3 months of visibility for sponsors beyond the duration of the trip itself.
