I can get him here if you can get him there....of maybe over there by that airport. Maybe tomorrow or the next day if it is VFR and on Thursday if it marginal VFR. But only between noon and 5. Can someone get him then or next Tuesday between 2pm and 4:30 ?

I can still do the first leg on Friday the 28th as I thought was originally planned. Earlier in the week doesn't look good for VFR. If this works let me know.

Daniel and all,

Friday, Saturday, or Sunday are all good with me. Is Friday your only available day? I was looking at either Henderson Oxford (KHNZ) or Triangle North Exec (KLHZ) as best transfer points. Do you have a preference?

We will need a pilot to fly Dean's leg out of FDK; he had identified someone he hoped to recruit.

Charlie, are you available Friday for the last leg?

Thanks.

Hi Steve,
I may be around after all next weekend. My travel plans are in flux and If I'm here, I'll cover the third leg as we originally planned. If not, I'll have a back-up pilot for this rescue provided the wx cooperates.

Marlene,

I am going to try to be wheels up at 8am from Mt. Pleasant headed to Hilton Head. I would guess you should be at the airport by 8:30am. I'd then board the dog headed for the Raleigh area no later then 9am. It's now looking like Thursday is a better weather day, but I hate to keep asking about changes.

We're looking at probable rain and wind at the destination airport (KTAN) this Thursday and so far Friday looks good. I don't mind rain and wind as long as the freezing level is high enough, I'll go IFR.

Happy Holidays all,
Charlie Malo

All,
My schedule would permit either Thursday or Friday. Want to wait a day for updated forecasts before deciding?
Dean, I know your schedule is not firm yet, but would there be a difference Thurs vs Fri for you?
