St. Louis Riverfront Tour Suggestions?

Posted by ltcterry@reddit | flying | View on Reddit | 5 comments

Flying from Georgia to Sikeston, MO, via the St Louis riverfront. Looking for suggestions. Will be arriving IFR. Looking at the VFR checkpoints for Jefferson Barracks and Mosenthein Island and asking to follow the river. Looking for others' advice and experience, please.

Contact approach and ask for the arch tour. They let me follow the river and get low.

We got down to 2,600. Too much traffic at KCPS to go lower. Was pretty neat! My client loved it!! And we logged 6.6 XC in his very nice Baron. Plus lunch in Sikeston.

Do it. You know you want to. You'll make it under no problem.

It will be close to 8 hours in a P-Baron with one of my favorite clients. Will be a good day. And I’ll break 2,500 on the way there.
