Hello

I can probably help you with this. I am not available this weekend but another coming up is an option. Where exactly in the Nashville area do you need the dogs moved?

Sincerely, Ryan

Ryan, thank you so much, the following weekend would be fine for both of the dogs.

As far as the area of Nashville, I have 2 volunteers that would be there and are located in Hendersonville and Goodlettsville and would be able to drive to any surrounding smaller airport.

Wonderful news! :D

Ryan,

I'm available next weekend as well if you want to split up the flight at Memphis. I've flown into Nashville several times and wouldn't mind taking these two with me as long as the weather stays good. If needed, I can fly these pups all the way out to Kingsport. Are you looking at the 29th as the best day? I rent and want to get my reservation booked early so I don't miss out.

Chris

Thank you both!

Getting them all the way to Kingsport would be the best news I have heard in many months!

March 29th would be perfect, both dogs are getting spayed and neutered, vaccinated and their health certificates tomorrow!

My phone is 423-340-2138. I work during the day, I am a nurse, but can text anytime during the day, although I might be in a meeting.

Holli will be the volunteer getting them on the plane in Magnolia. Her phone is 870-949-0127.

Thank you! :D :plane:

Without wind it's around a 3 hour flight from Memphis, where I'm based. I'm VFR only, so weather can be a factor. As we get closer to next weekend we can determine exact times and how far we can get these two. We're long overdue for a weekend of good flying weather, and I hope it holds all the way to east TN.

Ryan, how long of a flight do you have to M01, and what would be a reasonable time for a handoff?

Hello All

The 29th works for me.

Chris, my Ercoupe has no transponder so I will have to meet you out from under bravo. Would Covington (M04) work? I have the easy job, if we meet at covington I will be in the air about one and a half hours. Since you have the long leg I will defer the time table to you, what works?

Is Holli the person giving the dogs to me for the first leg? Would she be willing to drive from Little Rock to my home airport in Searcy?

Look forward to flying with you all

Ryan

Ryan,

The dogs are actually in Magnolia Arkansas, that is about 2.5 hours southwest of Little Rock. I can ask her how far she can bring them. And mapquest the ground trip. What time would they need to be there.

I am praying for better weather next weekend~! :)

Ms. Bryant

My mistake, I thought Little Rock was the starting point. Magonolia has a municipal airport, i can fly there for pick up and meet Chris just shy of Memphis airspace.

Chris, what about Tunica? Would that be incontinent for you as a meet point?
