We'll be taking the King Air to Cabo on the 5th and coming back on the 8th, but other than that I should be around. Give me a heads up and we'll go play. :D

Hey Joey, thank you for the great offer! We will see which way the wind and clouds blow later this week. I'll be in contact.

Hey Rick, I intend to come to your airport on this trip, it looks like a great area. It will be fun to meet you and 172heavy. I may do it as a day trip from Palm Desert.

As usual getting out of Oregon will be the trick. Right now Friday looks good. But it can change 5 times by then.

Cheers...Rob

Rob,

What day(s) are you going to be at KUDD and what's the N number of your Maule. I will be there for a couple of months, but unfortunately due to circumstances beyond my control I wasn't able to get the plane out there as previously planned. I'd trade lunch for some friendly backcountry conversation about flying in the west.

Re: January 6-22 Or, Az, Ca, Nv.

Sounds like we need another impromptu fly in here next weekend! North circuit and then south circuit by Gumps house. He has not been on the circuit yet either. Just say when your inbound and we will getter done! Weather looks to be all time for the next week at least. If your coming this way, you have to spend at least a day on one of our circuits.

Re: January 6-22 Or, Az, Ca, Nv.

Rob,
I am also planning to head down to Nevada this week for some end of season duck hunting. I have a place in Fallon. Would love to get together with you and aktahoe and do a little flyin. Maybe check out a few of pops strips ? I will be in the area most of Jan so let me know what works. I am watching the weather and hoping for a Friday departure and hunt the weekend but open after that. Let me know your schedule.

Hi Paul, I am looking at Friday as the day also. Sounds like a Saturday rip with Quinner might be in the mix. I got my little tires on so nothing to hard. If Rob in Zane's old plane can do it I feel good there. I got your number, will be in contact.

Cheers...Rob

Re: January 6-22 Or, Az, Ca, Nv.

Rob - I work right near KJAQ, Westover Amador, where my plane is. If you are by during the week, maybe we can squeak away for a flight or lunch. Wish I could make it back to Truckee this weekend. Man, such fun, and endless lading opportunities.

If you end up coming up the Eastern edge of the San Juaquin/Cental Valley, stop at my Dads airstrip below and say hi.

Either way, let me know when you are passing near the Sac/N. CA area!

Booked for Saturday, planning on chasing some birds, but afterwards pretty open maybe Chicken strip or other Death Valley locales, I have spent a nice night or so at the bar/hotel there. Consider Austin, it might offer a unique flying/dining/imbibing experience if pops can give us a few suggestions. I am open for anything I just want to get in the air. Stay in touch my cell works in Nevada.

Re: January 6-22 Or, Az, Ca, Nv.

I am trapped at gunpoint in The Cubicle of Death on Mondays and Tuesdays, and "Family Day" is Sunday (also gunpoint).

Any other day you're here and want to have lunch or see my corporate world headquarters I'll be happy to hang with you. If you're interested I'll fly with you and take you around to some of the interesting local joints, Santa Paula or Tehachapi gliderport, etc.

Hey Emmit: Doesn't look like our schedules will mesh on the south leg. But if something changes or maybe on the way home. Thanks for the invite. This is an amazing site, great guys!

Hey Paul: I'll be with the guys flying out of Truckee Saturday. Maybe Sunday Death Valley Chicken Strip. Camp. The hot springs is good. I know a bunch of our guys have been there recently. I here Bishop has a good restaurant on the field.

Monday I think all mozy down to Kern Valley and say hi to Rick and 172heavy. I should get to Bermuda Dunes Monday night. I have to pick up my mother and father in law at the airport Tuesday. I get to stay at their very nice home, so I am happily obligated.

Cheers...Rob
