You call it. I'm out this weekend, but should be able to do the other three.

We still haven't successfully done RPJ; MDH, EYE and UIN are on the short list, there's the EAA event on the 11th at OSH, and HUF has been suggested again.
 
Rick's Boatyard at EYE is a good place to eat. I'd be able to make that work with 0.1 on the hobbs! Hahahahaha
 
This weekend is the only one I might be able to make work. Flying to Daytona for the races next weekend

Well, I did get my plane out of the shop :happydance: and dropped it off at the next shop for the annual :sigh:. Didn’t even bring it back to the hangar. So, I’m out now through first half-ish of Feb. This shop is closer so at least I can go look at it through the window.
 
Anything going on Sunday the 12th of February?
 
I'm going to be trying to poke holes in the sky in the afternoon.

Leaving for warmer weather. Spending the week in Daytona for the races. Pa32 all waxed and fueled up.

Little Cherokee is in annual or I might burn a few holes.

Naturally the week I will (supposedly) pick up my plane you're gone so I can't stop by for the honey. Have fun at Daytona!

If you wanted I could leave it in the FBO at C81 before I leave. I'd mail it, but it didn't work out well last time someone tried sending some to me in new Mexico to give to our rancher buddy. Talk about a mess.
 
Anyone flying today? It was supposed to be rough aloft, but maybe it has dissipated? I see no PIREPs for turb around here.

I flew 6.9. Up to Sheboygan, then down the lake and over to Columbus and home. The lakeshore at 2k was bumpy but that was to be expected. Everything else was smooth.

I did some night landings and was misquoted… but it was close

Climbing out at 90KIAS I saw a leap to nearly 1800fpm once into the new air. On downwind I was doing 145 over the ground. The tower was like “I can’t figure out where to turn you to base” haha. 145 on downwind turned to 60 on final. Winds at the surface were 170 @ 12

Appreciate it, Dave. Between moving and planting, these meetups have been off my mind. That said, if anyone wants to pick a date and location, I'm always happy to update the thread.

We never did make it to RPJ.... want to simply resurrect that plan for either the 13th or the 27th? I can't make any promises that I'll show up until I'm done planting, but I'll be there if I can. If I'm not done by may 27, I'll be pretty angry.
 
Does KRPJ still sound like a good idea since this didn't happen in January? I suggest the 13th as the first attempt. That way the 27th is a backup date. Hopefully by then none of us have to deal with ice!!
