I am about half way. If someone can get them to cartersville ga I should be able to get them the rest of the way.

Do they have a crate? Can they be crated together? As I said I can fly them from Cartersville, GA or the surrounding area to Anniston, Talladega or Gadsden, AL. It would have to be a Saturday or Sunday (weather permitting). Let's get these two out of there.

I can fly them Saturday from Greenville to Cartersville ... I have small plane, both may need to be in a single crate.

[pogo929]

If we can get this all worked out, what time are you thinking Saturday? If you could be in cartersvile around 10 it would be great.

10:00 should not be a problem. This is my first flight with this org, who actually pulls the trigger to make this happen?

[pogo929]

This is my first flight as well. I am assuming the sending party.

Hey guys...good for you. Thanks for joining the ranks of volunteer PnP pilots.

Since this flight is the first for both of you, here is some advise. I've done 34 flights over the last 2 years...my recommendation is for one of you to take the lead (pilot flying first leg perhaps?). Get the following information from the person who posted the rescue request.

1. Name of the person dropping off dogs at the pickup airport and their cell phone number. Make sure they know exactly which airport. I've found it helps them to give them a street address to plug into GPS. If there are multiple FBOs, tell them which one you'll be at.
2. Name of the person taking custody of the animals at the destination airport and their cell number. Same as item 1. Give them an address and FBO name if there are multiple.
3. Contact info. of all pilots involved including aircraft N number, type and description. Share this info with the sending and receiving rescues as well as other pilots.
4. Lay out an itinerary and confirm with all involved that they agree.

Good luck. I hope your first flight goes well.
