SPI ON LONG XCOUNTRY FLT ALLEGEDLY FLIES THROUGH P40.

Narrative

I WAS TRAVELING ON THE FIRST LEG OF MY SOLO 'LONG' XCOUNTRY FROM PERKIOMEN VALLEY ARPT TO HAGERSTOWN ARPT. THE AIRPLANE I WAS FLYING WAS AN SMA. I WAS TRAVELING IN A SWESTERLY DIRECTION AT 3000 FT. MY COURSE WAS 256 DEGS. I HAD GOTTEN SLIGHTLY OFF COURSE SEVERAL TIMES BUT HAD FOUND MY CHKPOINTS. THE LAST CHKPOINT I RECOGNIZED WAS DIRECTLY OVER GETTYSBURG; PA. I THEN PROCEEDED TO ENTER OVER THE MOUNTAINS. THE WX BRIEFING I HAD RECEIVED PRIOR TO LEAVING WAS FOR MODERATE TURB IN SOME AREAS. AS I PROCEEDED OVER THE MOUNTAINS THE TURB INCREASED SIGNIFICANTLY; AND I TURNED IN A MORE NORTHERLY DIRECTION FOR A SHORTER RTE. I PASSED OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND CAME OUT OVER A SMALL TOWN. DIRECTLY AHEAD WAS RWY 27 AT HAGERSTOWN. AT THIS POINT I CONTACTED HAGERSTOWN TWR AND TOLD THEM I WAS 10 MI TO THE E AT 3000 FT; INBOUND FOR A LNDG. THE TWR GAVE ME A SQUAWK CODE AND TOLD ME TO IDENT. ONCE I HAD DONE THIS THE TWR ASKED IF I HAD THE RWY IN SIGHT AND THAT IT WAS 8 MI AWAY AT 11 O'CLOCK. I TOLD THEM I HAD THE RWY IN SIGHT AND WAS CLRED FOR RWY 27. I THEN PROCEEDED TO LAND AND WAS GIVEN A NUMBER TO CALL WHEN I HAD PARKED AT THE RAMP. I CALLED AS SOON AS I HAD CANCELLED MY FLT PLAN AND WAS TOLD THAT I HAD FLOWN OVER CAMP DAVID. I DID NOT HAVE MY MAPS WITH ME AND HAD NO IDEA THAT I HAD PASSED OVER THE AREA. THE SECRET SVC CALLED AND TOOK INFO SO THEY COULD PERFORM A SECURITY CHK. I INFORMED THEM THAT I WAS A STUDENT PLT ON THE FIRST LEG OF MY SOLO LONG XCOUNTRY AND THAT I HAD NO IDEA I HAD PASSED OVER THE AREA. THE ENTIRE TIME THAT I WAS ENRTE AFTER I PASSED GETTYSBURG I WAS ENTIRELY UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT I WAS WELL N OF CAMP DAVID AND LANDMARKS ON THE SECTIONAL APPEARED TO CONFIRM THIS.
