If you can get her up to some airport in CT, ie: Waterbury Oxford (KOXC) I can fly her to her destination airport in MA.

Hi Mark,
I am based at Caldwell, NJ and wanted to ask if you would be willing to fly the final leg from CDW to the destination if I and another pilot were able to get her up to CDW? Just trying to limit the number of legs for this flight.
Best,
Doug

Kathy Hynes (the rescue taking her) just told me that Tess will not be ready to go until this weekend at the earliest. possibly next weekend. awaiting results of some tests, I believe.

I'm available whenever Tess is ready to go. Mark and I have flown quite a few missions together and we'll make it work on our end.

Looking at trying to do this mission on Friday subject to the dog being in a stable condition (spoke to Vet, who thinks she will be OK, but need to confirm closer to departure). The first pilot can not help as his plane is down, so it would be great if someone else could help wiht the first leg otherwise I will fly from NJ to NC and then only need to confirm the final leg.

Hi All,

I'm a GO for Friday. Will meet in Jersey and drop off at KOXC. Should take me 45 min en route. Charlie will be flying the final leg to MA. Should work well if we can keep the dog in one crate the entire trip. Any word on the dimensions of the crate?

Best,
Mark

Brian Donoghue has offered to fly the first leg, but can not go until late in the day. I will meet him and fly Tess the rest of the way.

Mark and Charlie: thanks for offering to help, but perhaps you can fly that mission for the dog going from Trenton to Maine instead?

Regards,
Doug
