Well, I did my grand canyon flight over the weekend and it was excellent. Definitely would recommend Monarch Sky to anyone looking to do something similar. We flew a brand new DA40 with G1000 and the views over Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, Grand Canyon and Red Rock Canyon were amazing. We tried to do a transit across the strip but the wind changed on us and the big boys were landing on our proposed flight path so we had to go back around the long way.

I also ended up doing an aerobatic flight in an Extra 330. Another great highlight for me.

No time for Sedona this trip SoCal but will put it on the list for the next one. I will definitely be going back because, as much fun as I had, I think I only scratched the surface of what Vegas had to offer. It's a crazy city.
