It was a good day for flying, and I had agreed to fly a fellow pilot/neighbor and his wife an hour or so away so he could conduct some personal business. The destination airport was a non-towered facility southwest of and outside a nearby piece of Class B airspace. Our flight down was uneventful and my neighbor was able to conclude his business.
The route back to home plate I put into my GPS navigator was to an outlying airport to the east, so I could top off with some cheap gas. As a result, the route was oriented slightly more to the north than had been the inbound flight.
