2009 Alaskan Tour

Re: 2009 Alaskan Tour

Ready to fly home. Repaired in less than one week. Thanks to Dave, Jeremy, Carl, and the crew @ CPAC. Remarkable effort. Anyone headed over that way (CGI) in the next week or so? I'm looking to hitch a ride. Will buy gas. ;-)

You need a custom paint job also Bill, you know you do. The freakin' bird ruined the paint all the way to the tail of 3TC, I can clearly see it in these pictures. The insurance should be seeing that too and pay for it.
 
Re: 2009 Alaskan Tour

Looks good Bill glad to see her back together. She is a real nice bird and you can tell the care you give her I know it must have killed you when it happened. Glad to see her back to normal. Three cheers to cpac.
 
Re: 2009 Alaskan Tour

Bill, I've got off next week. it's two hours to you, and 2+20 from HOA to CGI. would be a nice flight for me, let me know..
 
Re: 2009 Alaskan Tour

Hell, Bill, just hop a tug at Cinci heading toward the gulf. Simple solution!
 
Re: 2009 Alaskan Tour

Allen,

Sounds like a plan! Let's set a date and I'm good to go. (sure as hell beats 15 hrs on a bus or close to 9 hours by commercial plane!)

Re: 2009 Alaskan Tour

Trivia Note:
I weighed the charts, procedures, sectionals and airport info from the trip.
8# 14oz without Dale’s book or package
I dumped some of the Canadian charts and info in Olympia.
3#??

Re: 2009 Alaskan Tour

Saving our pennies. 2013 or bust!
 
Re: 2009 Alaskan Tour

Allen,

Possibility I may hv a ride to CGI this Saturday. Will know for certain on Friday and will advise you ASAP. Appreciate your willingness to assist.
 
Re: 2009 Alaskan Tour

2013 for sure. I am setting up a Christmas account. Seems like a long time though. I could go for 2012!
 
Re: 2009 Alaskan Tour

I have two more great nephews, one is now 10 and the other 11.

2013 sounds like just right on the timing.

Tom and Ben flew out of Atlanta last night for the Uk and arrived 9am this morning. They will now sleep for three days.

Life is a barrel of fun.

Looks like he did not use any flaps,maybe he was trying to do three pointers in which case he did pretty good without bending anything!

Re: 2009 Alaskan Tour

Ken: That's great. What a super uncle you are. Bet there's a few kids out there trying to figure out how to be adopted into your family right about now.

Scott: Won't have enough put aside by 2012 to make it work so it'll have to be 2013 for us unless we sell the red car!

First of the day to everyone - rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!
 
Re: 2009 Alaskan Tour

Anyone started to fill out the form to get a refund on the GST in Canada???

With those pricy motels it may make a down payment for 2013.

Life is a barrel of fun.
 
Re: 2009 Alaskan Tour

OK, I nominate myself for the very last plane to be unloaded from the trip. Put her in the hangar tonight and had some decidedly stale laundry disembark for home. Nice to finally have her home again. Thx again to Carl, Dave, and the rest of the CPAC crew.

Sven,... Carl came up w/ a surplus camera mount that looked very "familiar". Need it before Boyne?
