Thanks you for the welcome, I have not landed at dauphin island yet, but plan too as my in laws have a house there. I have only had 1340j a couple of months and so far really like her. Glad to know there are a couple people not far from me as I am sure questions will come up and even tho the annual is not due until May of 2020 I am already thinking and hoping there is someone not far from me who could do it, as I gather from looking around in here that it would be best to find someone familiar with the commanders and nobody at KCQF fits the description. I am working on my instrument rating and will be doing some cross country work and perhaps I will drop in your way to say hello one day. Hope this message finds you as I could not figure out how to reply to your message directly? Thanks again and I will certainly be asking some question...
