Winter Flight to Block Island | Scenic Arrival and Departure in a Piper Archer

Join me aboard N33121, a Piper Archer 181, for a stunning December flight from Hartford, CT, to Block Island. We approach from the northwest, gliding over the island's southern coastline, with breathtaking views captured by an under-wing GoPro. Look out for the iconic Block Island Wind Farm to the right and enjoy fascinating insights about this charming Rhode Island gem.
