I'm going to give it a shot tomorrow. Low tide is 10:30 AM.

Anybody want to go? Zane, Craig, Don, Denis.

Rob

I'm up for it if you wanna drag me along.

Aw man... some of us have jobs! Ah well, you gotta take the good weather when it comes. Have fun and let us regular working stiffs know how it goes.

I'll go. What time you figure on being there? It looks like the fog will own the early morning.

Tom, hi. Zane is going to meet me at Troutdale 0930 It will take me an hour to get there. Low tide is 1030. If you want a head start we can meet you anywhere along the way. HQM, Elma, Chehaus-Centralia. We can contact you on 123.45 I'll PM you my mobile number.

Cheers...Rob

I don't think so.

HQM. Tonight: Mostly clear, with a low around 54. Southwest wind between 3 and 8 mph.

Wednesday: Patchy fog before 11am. Otherwise, mostly sunny, with a high near 71. Southwest wind between 3 and 10 mph.

It'll take me about 2.5 hours from Corvallis. I'll shoot for getting there about 1000. Except for pisscall, I'll fly up the valley, then over. I'd prefer to gas up after Copalis, so I'll be light. Probably just see you there.

Check this for weather:

Would love to go but not going to be able to.

Have a look here:

http://adds.aviationweather.gov/metars/

You might want to check Shelton as well as Hoquiam

This site is a good place to look for relative humidity trends:

The beach got reshaped a little this winter.

If you approach along the river from the South you will be lined up on the long part of the beach aiming just left of the big rocks off shore and you can easily be stopped before any logs or rocks.

Have fun.

Hmmmm. I was going to fly some crane parts down to Longview today and had a rough run-up...must be a plug. If I can get it resolved in the morning, I will try and meet up with you. Sounds like fun!

somebody shoot some video and take some pictures!

Chris, will do. Hopefully the fog will back off by 1100

Rob, hi. Thanks for the reply. You to have a very nice Maule. Was this your first time at Sunriver?

There are several people on this board who live near you. This is a fun place.

Blue skies and tail winds to you...Rob Troutdale, Oregon

Rob:

Did you make it to the beach? Plane just got first coat of white on it today and looks great. Friday it gets the trim stripes. Now if I could magically make the wings ready I could fly with you next week. If all goes well maybe we'll be flying again by November. I'll be gone on vacation next week but hopefully we can get together when I get back.

Steve

Steve, hi. No didn't make Copalis. Yes on lunch when you get back. I had a good lunch with dokmow. He has a nice M5. We are going to land at your house and see your project in the near future. Hopefully I'll do Copalis next Wed. I think the tide and fog will work with a 5pm low tide.

Cheers...Rob

Sorry you did not make it to the beach. I was wondering about that it looked like the clouds had fir needles in them well past 10:00AM
