I can get him from Tappahannock, Williamsburg, or Richmond area back to Tipton/Ft. Meade, weather permitting of course.

Hi,

I could perhaps do a first leg like Asheville to Roanoke if this helps. Gary, would it work for you?

Would Farmville work for you? It's about 36 NM from LYH, but makes a big difference on my total flight time. FVX has the cheapest gas around - currently about $5.75.

Sorry - got my airports a bit mixed up. If FVX won't work for you, how about LYH? I prefer either of those over ROA, where gas is really expensive.

Gary,

Farmville would work for me, will be 520 NM and put me below 4h total.

I have a tentative PNP flight to Cincinnati this Saturday. Was thinking we could do Sunday but since you are VFR I will let you call the shots. And if you think Saturday is better, just let me know as soon as possible and I will try re-arrange my schedule.

I will give Karon my personal contact info so we can start planning this.

Christophe - Can do Sunday - at least currently forecast to be okay, but with occasional showers possible. Sat. is, of course, much better, but let's plan on Sunday,
with a switch to Saturday if your Cincinatti flight doesn't pan out. Does that make sense? I can also fly any day during the week, weather permitting of course.

Christophe,
Would you please email me at [email protected] and give me your cell number and your preferred email address. I send out an "intro" email to the sending and receiving parties as well as Gary (I have his info) so times, places can be coordinated with them as well. Thank you!!

I unfortunately have a day job to pay my bills including for flying :-) so could only do evenings during the week. Happy to fly at night if it works for Gary.

Since the other trip is slow to gear up, let's shoot for Saturday then. First come first serve.

Karon, I tried to send you my info this morning via PM (personal message) but just emailed it to you recently.
