VFR From Uncontrolled To Towered Airports
This is a short 55 mile flight from Independence Municipal Airport (KIIB), Iowa to Dubuque Regional (KDBQ) in the TorqueSim SR22. I'm transporting some patients in FSEconomy trying to help payoff this fine airplane. Along the way, I cover the details of the use of mixture and particularly the concepts of Rich Of Peak and Lean Of Peak. As usual, ATC communication is done using Pilot2ATC with AI traffic provided by World Traffic. Hope you enjoy!
