If the flight can wait until the 12th, and weather permitting, I can do the entire flight.

Thanks, Mark. Would like to get him out of holding location sooner (but I'll hold on to your offer).

Hi
I might be able to make this total trip on 28 Dec when there may be a break in the weather. How are you doing on getting a flight? I am new to Pilotsnpaws.

Hi
Still checking the weather. I will be able to make the trip just what day is the question. I am making a trip tomorrow 28 Dec to NY for another dog as part of a 4 leg effort.

Karon, Gina

Same note that I sent you -- posted for the record

I have decided to break my two efforts and do your trip first on Jan 2. I could depart at 9:00 from Leesburg and be at Altoona, PA (AOO) about 9:30.
Depart Altoona, PA (AOO) at 10:00 and be at Akron Fulton Airport (KAKR) at 11:15. Returning to Leesburg by 1:00 PM.

I can change the times but want to be back at Leesburg by around 4PM.
I have a crate – so that is taken care of .

How does this work for you?

Karon, Gina
I think we are all set of the flight tomorrow AM 2 Jan for Boo. I have another pilot Jim Sass that will be doing the trip with me – he is an instrument rated flight instructor and old friend for over 20 years.
After a lot of planning Jim and I will be also picking up a mom and 11 pups in KT and bringing them back to NJ.

To make all this work I would like to pick up Boo at Altoona Blair at 7:45 AM on 2 Jan. and drop Boo off at Akron at about 9:30 AM. Will this work for you?

You can track the progress of our flight by going to http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N201AK

Our entire plan is attached. It is a lot of flying but is the most efficient way to get both trips completed

Happy New Year !!!!
