It's 1700 miles. That's a pretty long trip.

sure by car it is.. not by plane.

it takes about the same amount of time to fly there than it does to drive track to track in cali with that traffic.

its like a 3 1/2 hour flight. its not something that is a big deal. top horses do it all the time.

They get the horse up at 3:00am. Then she has a one hour drive to Ontario Airport. They make you get to the airport early and then the horse has to sit at the airport for another hour. Then you have a 3 1/2 hour flight. Then you arrive at Hot Springs Airport and have another short van ride. It's at least a 6 hour deal altogether. It's not going to kill a horse but it's not something I would want a horse to be doing every couple of months.
