Ohohia - The Pacific-Crossing Attempt
This is a journal of my progress toward my goal of flying a model airplane from Hawaii to California. The inspiration for this project originally came from the Aerosonde, which is not technically a model airplane, but my desire to do this was really driven by the STAR team. They succeeded at flying a model airplane across the Atlantic! It was merely proof that it can be done.

Interest
I went to a party tonight and met some nice people - a number of whom expressed interest in seeing my airplane succeed. Time will tell. At least nobody flat out said, "you're crazy!" Then again, perhaps that goes without saying.
