SW-Ohio/MI/IN/Everyone Gathering

Sunday looks better for me. Saturday says midday scud running for the west side of the state.
 
Can we all plan on Sunday, Noon EDT at MIE?

I might have a total of 4. It may be in 1 or 2 planes
I thought Grant and Leslie were in. Also possibly "the other Liz" in her RV.
 
Leslie has a cracked tooth, so I'm not sure she wants to be flying. Put us in the "we'll see" category.

Load her up with Crown and Coke before the flight, and you get to be PIC BOTH directions this time. :yes:
 
I definitely am a maybe. If I come, it will probably just be me.

Benadryl used to work to put my kids asleep in long flights. Maybe I should have tried the Crown and Coke. I could bring some Gentleman Jack for your return trip.

We don't want Leslie asleep. We just want her in super fun mode. :lol:
 
Sorry about the CDT/EDT mix up. Yes, 1800Z or 1:00 PM sounds great. I will probably have the whole family(4 ea) with me in our red/white RV-10.
 
Ted, are you guys coming up Sunday?

We thought about it, but probably won't. It's hard traveling with a 3 month old, and actually short trips are harder than long.
 
Been ther done that and have scars to prove it. Took two in diapers to Wilmington NC once in a 180 Cherokee.

Catch you on the next one!
 
Yeah, our trip to Nebraska was pretty easy, and I think our trip to Newfoundland will be similarly simple. However the one time we flew to Grimes for lunch... that was a pain.
 
As we discovered in the other thread, it turns out that there are a number of PoAers in the SW-Ohio area. We're now based at I67 - Cincinnati West.

It would be a lot of fun to get together. We have been to Grimes (I74) once for lunch, but didn't find it to be all that great. Maybe we ordered the wrong thing.

It's probably fairly unlikely we'd be able to do something before New Years, simply because of family, work, plane and car work I need to get done, and preparing for the upcoming trip to Belize. So probably something after January 1st would be better.

Since I'm new to the area, I'm not very good for suggestions. So, thoughts?

LOL. Ah, good times.

Sooo ... perhaps you should have suggested an "Anywhere but SW-Ohio/MI/IN Gathering"? ;)
 
I'm actually going to see if a CFI is willing to go up with me in the morning in the 15G25. I think if it is 20G32 (which it might be), not even a CFI will go with me =)
 
The wind is forecast to be 25G35KT here. If that turns out to be, of course it will be a showstopper for me too... :(

If you can handle 8-9 AM winds, they will decrease through the day. If it is too strong in the AM, then see if he can go up when they get down to a more comfortable level. Your CFI may want to join us for lunch.
 
20G32 isn't that bad when it's close to down the runway :dunno: Just carry some extra speed on final for the women and children.

My latest Tally. I will call Kacys later this afternoon.

Fantastic, Glad I stopped by the hanger today the battery was down a bit. I see a new one in my immediate future.

Depends on the CFI. This CFI would - 20G32 isn't a big deal.

Liz, I think you're right! We'll go next for "anywhere but close to home." Plus I really don't know how to fly less than 300 nm! :)
