I thought I would start a thread to share my journey and adventure with you guys. Many of you I hope to meet along the way. I know there isn't alot to share just now but I thought I would get the thread up and going while I still have access to a PC
However I must admit, without even leaving my local area one particularly special thing has arisen and I have so Incredibly many of you to thank. It was a special experience and a credit to the great bunch of fellas you all are.
As alot of you know I was originally going to the HSF with Rob (Rob56W), Justin (dudesickle) Being my back up. Unfortunately both those guys found they had engine issues. The wonderful joys of aviation is if its going to go wrong, its always at the worst possible time! even though I always had the back up of just hiring a car and driving to the HSF, before both these guys even took a moment to think about how they may be able to get to the HSF they bent over backwards to find a way I could have the opportunity to fly in. They even Offered to drive me out there personally, but there was no need as within the hour I had honestly a good 30 offers of people offering to take me in. Darin (Ranchpilot) even offered to drop his gear off at site, and where ever in the states I was, come and get me to make sure I don't miss out. Emmet (Emflys) however has very kindly offered me a seat in his newly acquired 180 and to top things off, Is not only bringing me food, water and camping gear, but is also insisting on paying for my flight from LA to Sacramento! This of course we will be having words about as I tend to disagree!
The generosity of everyone has been incredible so before I even walk through my door to begin my adventure I want to say thank you to everyone for already making this an amazing experience and I look forward to saying Gday, and shaking the hands of as many of you as possible! If you are going to be at Dead Cow, be sure to come find me! Ill be the one talking funny!
I'm also making a video log as a feature for BCP. I want to get meeting and flying with all of you on there if I can. So if you get greeted by my camera before my hand, thats why. if you don't want to be in the video, tell me to piss off! it will look great in the final cut
