Weather permitting, this weekend as I will be in the area with other drop offs. I'll foster until we can get him further north. I don't have a preference on crate type.

Linda, do you have a max crate size that will fit in the plane? If it fits in yours it will fit in mine.

The day will be both weather and flight delay dependent. It's my last pickup for the weekend so most likely it will be Sunday. Go ahead and pass along the foster's contact via email.

I think we are set for the 16th---that leaves us the 17th in case weather is bad. I am keeping both dates open for Opie....I love him already!!!

John, you are a doll for fostering him for a week. Lots of hugs for both you and him!!

Sam and Marty, see you on the 16th!

Please help Opie,new amputee,get from GA-VA 5/16

Hi All!

This was almost all set up but due to the weather, the pilot offering his services from GA to VA is unable to do it this weekend but the other two pilots offering to get him from VA to NJ can only do it the weekend of the 16th.

Is there anyone out there that can get Opie from Pickens County airport in Jasper GA to VA on the 16th??

I have VA to NJ filled as long as we can get him to VA on the 16th.

Please let me know!

Thanks!

We had 3 pilots all lined up but now we need a replacement pilot from GA to VA. We can get him from VA to NJ.


Can anyone help?
