Everything Offends Me
August has come and gone, and we have a new update for everyone! Not many claims, but some really great photos taken. I strongly suggest perusing the pictures that people are posting!
So, here's the stats for last month...
Top Claims for August: (lots of ties)
1) Kent Shook 11
2) Grant Prellwitz 6
Jay Maynard 6
4) Ron Hammer 3
5) Skip Miller 2
Bill Mellett 2
Mari 2
Timothy Poole 2
Top Claims overall:
1) Barb Miller 356
2) Peter Yee 255
3) C. Edward Irvin 142
4) Mike Schneider 101
5) Karl J. Kisser 95
So - some important claims we need for next month...California is only 3 airports away from being 100% completed. That's a really big accomplishment. A28 (Fort Bidwell), L78 (Jacumba) and 1Q5 (Gravelly Valley) are all that is left. Someone want to let me know for sure that Fort Bidwell is not a military use only airport?
There are only 8 more Maryland airports left: KBWI (Baltimore International), W48 (Essex Skypark), KCGS (College Park), KCBE (Greater Cumberland Regional), 1W3 (Mexico Farms), 1W5 (Hoby Wolf), KVKX (Potomac Airfield), and 2G4 (Garrett County).
Only 13 more to go in New Hampshire too. Anyone in New England would do well to grab those, as I've flown in New Hampshire and its an amazing place to fly.
I should point out that grass landing season is quickly coming to an end! I think a great focus would be to get as many grass airports knocked out as possible so that we can all focus on the paved ones during the summer.
All that said, there are some states that really need some claims! I know New Mexico is one of them, and as soon as I feel comfortable flying again, I'll be up and raring to go, but there are others that barely have any claims at all. Louisiana only has 5 claims (6.6%), North Dakota only has 8 claims (9%), South Dakota only has 14 claims (18.7%). We gotta have pilots flying in these states, right?
There have not been any bravos claimed anytime recently (understandable, I know they're tough and somewhat pricey to get).
Bravos left to claim: KBOS, KBWI, KCVG, KEWR, KJFK, KMCO, KPIT, KSEA, KTPA
