Possibly Sunday - I could do last leg to Chicago if someone can get them to Dayton KMGY.
Or, could goto Beckley WV KBKW area and bring back to Dayton.

Can you provide the outside dimensions of the crate?

regards,
Mike

Gene B - what time works for you at KBKW or around there if you have another preference? I'm about 1.5hrs up and down to there. I'd like to avoid leaving really early in the morning, so anytime after 10eastern works for me. I could do a bit earlier, if needed.

Mike: I can meet you at 12 noon on 3/3 at KBKW. My flight planner shows about 1hr 45min from Greenville to Beckley. I'm based in Louisburg - KLHZ but it's a short flight over to Pitt-Greenville PGV for me. Let me know if we need to adjust times.

Thx, Gene
