Connie in Piper Warrior

This is a map I made from a rectified image of a current New York sectional chart. I rectified it using GRASS and latitude and longitude data for airports listed in the Airport/Facility Directory. Overlaid on the map is a set of data points I collected with a GPS recording my first cross country solo flight. The entire flight was Beverly - Portland - Beverly, but, for some reason I have not yet figured out, the GPS stopped recording data as I entered the inner ring of Portland's Class C airspace.
