I can probably help out with a final leg to southern NH if you can get him to E'rn NY, NJ or CT. I just want to make sure I have a co-pilot who can help to lift him into the plane. Weekend of April 20-21, yes?

Thank you Margery. Yes, weekend of April 20th. Hoping we can get the other legs filled, getting him from NC to NY/NJ/CT area so you can pick up from there.

I would be more than happy to help with a NC -VA leg.

Can you tell us a bit about the dogs demeanor after all they've been through? Will Cesar tolerate being lifted?

Cesar & Mary are both incredibly friendly & loving. He is fine with being lifted up. Rick thank you so much. We just need to get VA to NJ/NY filled now. Know anyone who does that route?

Hi All,
I am the middle leg pilot to whom Rick was referring. I will take the dogs from Rick in Virginia and deliver them to Margery.
Margery, I can certainly help lift them into your plane if you don't have a copilot available. Let's make this happen!
I will most likely meet Rick at KFYJ as usual, and can arrange to meet Margery at a mutually agreed upon location in NJ (3n6) or someplace in southern Ct.
You can contact me directly as below or through the forum

Terry,
That's great. I can probably get a co-pilot and otherwise will be glad for your help. I just want to make sure he's handled gently in and out of the plane. Happy to make this happen.

Margery
