    We had a wonderful time as always! Looking forward to 2025 already! (I stole the latter photos from Michelle; she’s the much better photographer.)

    We’re doing flight planning. And meal planning. And looking at 6Y3 Sunday.

    Flying in France

    My wife and I are private pilots. We’re headed to France in late September, spending about a week in Paris and about a week in Bordeaux. We’d love to do some flying while we’re there, probably just a local flight to see the sights, with a CFI in the right seat. I’ve spotted a few flying clubs in...

    Booked the lodge. Hoping for ok weather. Considered bringing the Taj Mahtent but ultimately opted for indoors. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Choosing a "public benefit" flying organization

    I flew a LifeLine flight FROM Mayo toward Ohio. Dad was a doc there, mom was a nurse, and little kid already had had 18 surgeries. These are edge cases where you bring the patient to the experts. Believe me, they certainly didn’t want to fly the little guy if they didn’t have to, and they knew...

    My son (who helps with jambalaya night at OSH) wants to come next year to assist with breakfast. Not sure how to wake him up that early…

    The wife (who just soloed on Monday!) and I are coming. We’re 6Y9 noobs who’ll be tent camping. What facilities are there for campers e.g., water? Thanks Grant P for the link to this thread!

    Funny, I just had the same question. Hopefully you get a response from somebody who knows something.

    Mountain Flying Training near BJC

    I'm a flatland pilot heading to BJC in an M-20J to attend a conference in early May and am looking to get a day or half-day of Mountain Flying training in. A friend pointed me to the Colorado Pilot's Association page, and the one instructor in Golden whom I emailed hasn't responded. Any...

    Asheville

    I'm headed there on the 24th, so will be nearby. I will probably arrive sometime mid-day; how much wind is too much to get into a field like AVL? I'm happy to go IFR over the top, and more than happy to divert if need be. I'll be coming from the northwest (KMIC). I've ordered Sparky Imeson's...

    Asheville

    I'm an instrument-rated flatlander looking at a getaway flight to Asheville NC for a weekend later in April. Wondering if there's a better (read: cheaper) place to go that's still reasonably close. Also for campground recommendations and sites to see in the city and in the country. Any advice?
