    Default 5 days and wheels up :)

    Watching the weather and it looks like the morning of June 3rd is going to be a green light from the tower..
    My Co pilot has had her gear packed for a week ha ha !!
    I will repost our route once all stops are confirmed, and do my best to stick to the schedule so if im near any forum members at the planned way points it would be cool to get some pictures with other kitfox flyers along our adventure

    Chase,
    Looks like a cool trip. How about at least throwing it on Sky Vector and copy the page to TKF so we can see where you are going? (Since we can't go, too. We really, really want to watch)

    Hey Chase, If you are stopping at Hopkinsville-Christian Co in Ky, you might want to contact Danny Powell from the members list. He and his SS7 are at Hopkinsvville. He just finished his plane a couple of years ago.\

    PS - If you get near KIOB (Mt. Sterling, KY) give me a hollar, would be glad to meet you in person.
