Re: Britt needs a ride from Russellville AR to Milwaukee WI
Team -
I have my own crates that I use for my transport flights. Robin - I can fly into KCPS and meet you at the terminal bldg (where Oliver's is located). I've done the flight from St. Louis to Russelville, AR several times and when you factor in headwinds and ground stops, it works out to 2 hrs each way. Thus, if I can go "wheels up" no later than 8am, I can have the ar KCPS by Noon.
The long range forecast shows good conditions for next Sunday but, of course, a lot can change between now and then. We'll just need to keep checking the weather and stay in touch. Probably a good idea to try to arrange temporary fostering at each stop as a pop-up thunderstorm can easily upset our plans.
Thanks all,
Bill Carrier

PS - Robin, with so few airline flights into STL these days, our TRACON friends are very cooperative about clearances into the Class B. They're even asking us locals to practice approaches at Lambert.

We have a foster available in St, Louis in case of an emergency overnight and am working on one in Peoria.

That's great. I'll need the cell phone of the St. Louis foster sometime prior to the flight to St. Louis.
Robin -
If you will send me your e-mail address (to my e-mail: [email protected]), then I'll send you (and Rebecca) a copy of the itinerary I'm drafting to ensure we're all on the same page and have the required contact info.
Thanks,
BC

I have found a local rescue that will donate a crate, so I am set for this and other transports.

I'll get the cell number for you in the next day or so. We have 2 fosters in the St. Louis area, one near Creve Coeur and the other near Bethalto. They are sorting it out.
Jim -
That is super about the crate. So glad you are set!
Thank you!

Re: Britt needs a ride from Russellville AR to Milwaukee WI
Because Robin has a conflict on Sunday (making Monday or Tuesday better for him), I contacted Bob Blumenshine who has helped ABR in the past. If the weather allows this transport to occur on Sunday, he will be flying St. Louis to Peoria.
Here is the message from him:
I will plan on the transport Sunday, weather permitting. Best airports for me would be Creve Couer (1H0) in St Louis and Mt Hawley (3MY) in Peoria. I will need names/phone numbers/emails for the other pilots as usual. Bob B. 314 323 8863, [email protected]
Bill - I have your information and will share it with him.
Jim - could you please make contact re the Peoria field?
Thanks!

I believe it's firm that we will transfer Bogie from me to Bob at the Creve Couer Airport. So, I think it's best to know who that emergency foster is.
Also, who is transferring the dog to me at the Russellville Airport? I need a name and cell phone number.
Weather still looks good between all the way from Russellville to Madison for Sunday. Fingers crossed ...
Thanks,
