This weekend's animal rescue - SC, NC, CT, NH, NY

[Ted]

We're planning out this weekend's animal rescue, looking like the following:

Saturday: KIPT - KGMU (Greenville, SC)
Sunday: KGMU - KHBI (Ashboro, NC) - somewhere in CT - KMHT (Manchester, NH) - KSCH (Schenectady, NY) - KSYR (Syracuse, NY) - KROC (Rochester, NY) - KIPT

I might try to cut out one or two of the stops in NY to save some time, since Syracuse is pretty well situated between Rochester and Schenectady.

Anyone en route who's interested in coming by and say hi, let me know!

Co-Pilot avaiable... comes with 496.

Ended up being a few modifications to the transport. On Saturday, I flew down with my co-pilot to South Carolina and spent the night there. Sunday we loaded up 16 dogs, 8 of which were dropped off at KSYR, and the other 8 dropped off at KMHT. AdamB happened to be near KMHT at the time anyway, so he dropped in to say hi. We got press coverage at all three stops, from a total of four stations!

A successful weekend!

Very little in the way of PnP rescue flights in the North Texas area. The weather really ruined the start of the Pnp5000 here.

Some good comments are being posted at the first link. Good job Ted!!!!

 

[AdamB]

Nice job Ted.

Glad the timing worked out. Always good to catch up and see what goes into these things on the ground.
I realized I must have made some video clip as my parents emailed me
earlier to say they saw me on the news this morning. Looks like I was doing a good job
of supervising.

 

[Ted]

Hey, someone's gotta supervise!

 

[AdamZ]

I love it In Greenville its Ted Depuis in NH is Ted Dupwah and then we have AdamB. Man I tell ya I've never seen anyone stand next to a baggage door like that! Way to go Adam!

 

[Ted]

The funny thing is that at the start of every interview you stand in front of the camera, then say and spell your name. New Hampshire has been the first to pronounce it incorrectly!

I must say, without AdamB's dedicated supervision, I don't think this mission would have gotten accomplished.

 

[AdamB]

Glad to help Ted.
Of course they didn't show any footage of me grabbing puppies
and putting them in the cage. Media...

wait till they get ahold of my last name. They'll butcher it worse than Zucker
