I'm finalizing my plans to be in the Sedona area November 8 - 13 or so. I may extend that some depending on how things go. I'm planning on staying in Cottonwood to save a few bucks, but will probably do most of the photos around Sedona.

I'm going out there to shoot a friend's planes, a Monocoupe and a Cessna 195 and whatever else he can drum up. Also planning to shoot @SoCal RV Flyer's plane. A few others have mentioned wanting photos as well. If you're interested, reply here, PM me, or shoot me an email at jackfleetwood@yahoo.com.

I'm offering a $600 rate to POAers or anyone you refer for this trip. Hoping I'll break even! Looking forward to the trip and hopefully meeting a lot of new friends. If you're not happy with the photos, I won't charge you, it's as simple as that.

Also, if you just want to come hang out and see how it works, let me know. I can probably throw someone in the plane with me and let you see things from my perspective. The goal for me is to get away from my day job for a few days, relax, and get some awesome pics.
 
Too close for my New York trip, otherwise I'd love to attend.

<---- has a clean belly too
 
I've always adhered to the notion that belly cleaning was more of a personal thing.
 
Looking forward to it, Jack! The Monocoupe and 195 are a couple of my favorite planes, so it'll be a bonus to see them there, if our schedules overlap.
 
If you’ve ever wanted a photo of your plane and live anywhere near Sedona now is the time. You’ll never have a better choice than Jack at getting photos you’ll love and that will make sure your plane looks great.

Jack is a true artist and is a great person to fly with.

Thanks Gary!
 
I’m interested and may make a day trip out of it depending on weather. If I can’t make it out there is there a cancellation fee?

No, you pay me there. I’ve been a pilot for a long time, I understand weather getting in the way!
 
I'm trying to get everything nailed down and get everyone on the calendar. I understand things move around so this is not set in stone yet.

Making sure I don't miss anyone out there who has mentioned wanting photos. I would feel terrible if I left someone off!
@retpd2001, I had you on my list of people who wanted to know when I was out that way.

I've attached my calendar for now and I can move people around as needed. Don't panic if you're not on the right day!

I could do just about any of those days if you come down to Ryan. Might have another client or 2 for you, please let me know.
 
OMG, I may be able to make this! I should be headed east out of Southern California on or about the 9th... will PM.

PS, I guess I mis read it, that you will just be in Sedona.
 
I can’t wait to see the air-to-air with the Sedona area in the background. The photos will be spectacular.

If you can get me another plane to shoot, I can probably work something out to catch you on our way back to Texas. It would probably be Tuesday or Wednesday, depending on how long we stay in Sedona though.
 
Getting close! I'm excited. Plans are to leave Texas Thursday morning, 11/7 and stay through at least Tuesday 11/12.
 
I'd love to meet up and see your set-up! Maybe even go up with you if you have an open slot. I live in Sedona and can meet up at Sedona airport or Cottonwood. If my guest room wasn't full, I'd offer you a place to stay :(
 
10-day forecast looks good...should be fun!! I'm flying up early Saturday morning to Cottonwood; maybe we can meet up for lunch during that harsh mid-day light. :)

The good thing is mid-day isn't very long! Sun sets at 5:30 or so. Going to be a blast.
 
We are leaving Saturday evening, will be staying with the in-laws till Monday in Prescott
 
I am so ready for this! We've had four power outages in October, the last one ending last night at 7:00. It lasted 96 hours. Fortunately, we weren't in a mandatory evacuation zone. Camping out in your home eating canned Dinty Moore beef stew every night for four days isn't my idea of having fun. :frown:

I plan to arrive Sunday and will be staying at the Sky Ranch Lodge a short walk from SEZ.

EDIT - After checking hotel prices, I switched my reservation to the Lux Verde Hotel in Cottonwood; it's less than half the price of Sky Ranch Lodge. No brainer.

I'm staying at Lux Verde as well. Looks nice and it's very close to the airport!
