Headwinds

Whilst heading East with MTW I felt lucky with ground speeds as high as 135Knots. On the return trip I maxed at 114Knots close to perth and got as low as 68knots in some places. It took me 22 Hours to fly the 1841Nm from Bankstown to Jandakot and that gives me an average speed of just 83.6 Knots.

On the way there my average speed works out as 102Knots, but it felt faster!
