Well, somebody had to start it... :D

Jesse and I will be wheels up from KLNK heading to 3M0 around 9am today in N8838J. We may or may not file if you're watching flightaware.com.
 
I'll be departing IA24 in N8313V in a couple hours, hopefully before this big nastiness that's headed my way gets here! But I won't be on FlightAware, I'll be flying below the radar. :D
 
from what i remember of cruise speed on the citabria and with the forecast winds straight out of the south kent should arrive sometime on saturday
 
Planning on wheels up sometime after 10 am tomorrow EDT. favorable winds would be nice. I'm filing.
 
Planning a post work departure around 4ish In N271G. I'm picking up Javier in St Joseph, so I may need a ride from Mountain home as I don't have the Braille One arrival proc. I just hope Steve can miss the deer again this year :D
 
Planning on an early departure tomorrow as well. Will have chocolate razzberry cookies and a couple of bottles of local wine for people to try. Fishing gear and dog. Gaston's t-shirts and matching shoes. :) Still 300 pounds undergross with full tanks. See everyone tomorrow!

Ooops... also husband. :) Don't wanna forget HIM.

Damn I was hoping you'd get here tonight. I don't know how long I can keep the curds around....
 
Felix, Troy and I are planning on departing at 9:00 tomorrow morning in N322KS. Should take about 2 hours. Will plan on landing at Ozark Regional, but will check the runway at Gastons <g>

Best,

Dave
 
Hmmm It may be a Friday arrival after all :-( Looks like that bunch of junk over IA is gonna be right in my path to St Joseph just in time for my proposed departure time... Yay!

Condolences Wayne. Every year it seems a few more friends drop off :(.

I'm sorry to hear of the loss of your friend. You chose the right place to be. We'll see you next year.
 
Tony, I see you made it. I'm somewhere over Colorado in the back of an A319, coming home from a work trip.

We'll head down sometime tomorrow. WX will determine whether we bring the 140 or a 172. Right now, it looks like the 140 will be the tool of choice.

Can't wait to see everybody!

I'm truly sorry to hear that, Wayne. Sometimes life gets in the way.

Bob will have to fend for himself now.

We're departing sometime before noon in the 140.

We'll likely have to dodge some weather, but it looks much better than last year. See you all this evening!
