Additional Info/situation:
Looking for options due to IFR weather…
NEED … flight from KXSA to Harford (HFD).
Optimal 2 legs. XSA-RDG and RDG-HFD.
Belle was found in the woods days old... Bottle fed/fostered by LA Baby Mamas ... I've had to wait for her to reach 8 weeks for her to be ready to come home ... The problem is that it's taken me more than 6 weeks to arrange transport ... I get some volunteers and then struggle to get them all to be able to travel on the same day ... Because I have not been able to get the whole distance booked and she is now 15 weeks old ... She was flown to GA to catch her rides on up to her home in CT ... THOUGHT WE HAD IT DONE BUT… THIS morning, OCTOBER 19th her Columbus, GA fosters drove her to Athens to meet her flight … DarcyD who was unable to fly due to weather so she drove and met them halfway and will foster tonight ... Darcy will bring Baby Belle to XSA where we pick up Daisy to fly out tomorrow morning … PLEASE we NEED A HAIL MARY to get them both to their FURever HOMES … We need a pilot/pilots that can take her to HFD, CT ... Really need this to happen as we will also be SAVING Daisy, a beautiful Lab (mama-to-be), who is in a high kill shelter and needs to find safety for her and her babies.

I will leave KUZA tomorrow Sunday with Belle and Daisy around 0900 EDT.

Planning on going to XSA (original itinerary) but open and flexible to go to any airport in the DC/VA/MD area if needed.

I can transport from Gaithersburg MD KGAI to a half-way point to destination. I am VFR only with a Piper Warrior.

If your other plans don't work out, I'm available Sunday to fly any or all from KRDG to Connecticut. Plenty of room in Turbo-Saratoga, IFR.
