Who wants to go flying on the west circuit on Sunday? The weather looks like it's going to be great as long as we don't get any valley fog. Avidflyer and I will be out and about landing the several dirt strips and off airport sites in the Berryessa area. All are welcome to come join us for the last fly out of the year! We can even do breakfast/lunch too if people want. Hey AKT you didn't take off those bushwheels already did you?

Very cool! Nice pic!!

Happy New Year!!

If there is an open seat let me know!! Plane down for annual!

Hmmm, I might be able to go, I'll see how things work out...have a family get together tomorrow. Rob, send me a text Sunday morning as soon as you know there's no fog, Ill try to leave at sunrise to head that way.

Rob let's land that spot on the way back down South

Wish we could make it; we are in San Diego until Monday. Beautiful flying down here and getting out of the fog and rain for a while.

this makes me sad
I definitely miss flying out there and never did get to see the Westside...

Hopefully, I'll shoot a Florida "buck" to make up this morning to make up for missing all this great flying.

The one in the picture? Sounds like a plan to me! It will be the first time anyone else has landed there, its a fun spot.

I'll be expecting some deer jerky at JC this year

Ok who else wants to go? We only have 3 planes so far, I know we can do better than that!

I'll bring some deer jerky that my Mom sent me from Idaho tomorrow!

Joey or Robb please give me a call in the AM. I will be curious about your fog down there. Skis are not on yet. Been skiing (my other life) a lot as of late. 10-15' of snow in the mountains and huge avalanches everywhere!!! Thats another story.

I will shoot down the hill if there is no fog!

I dont think this is your spot Rob but I bet its in the neighborhood...



Talk to you in the AM

AKT

I think that's on the wrong side of the valley, Kevin. I'll give you a call in the morning with a wx update. How about we plan on meeting at Rio Vista (O88) at 8:45-9:00. My hangar is on the south side A-9. You guys can land in the grass on the right side of 33 then make a 180 and taxi back to my hangar. From there we can make the short flight to our first stop (the one I posted a picture of) then continue northward onto the circuit.

I will be in Truckee on Monday afternoon. Tuesday morning anyone?

Dang, planning on snowboarding that day.

Could be snowing in the AM here but planning on leaving around 830. Look forward to seeing you guys. Skis will be on Monday. Scoplax let's connect!

Wish I could join you. My aircraft(s) are all down for mechanical and upgrades. It's getting expensive hanging around BCP! If you need a hangar,tools, or a car feel free to ping me for access to my KSAC hangar.

Fly safe,
Double Ugly

Ok sounds good Kevin, we'll use the standard freq 124.20. Too bad Aaron, you'll have to fly with us next time!

Kevin and Aaron, forgot to mention the number for Rio Vista AWOS... 707-374-5396.

PIREP from Pete's coffee:

Its a Beautiful cold and clear Sacramento morning.

Head to the airport and hoping for it to clear. Currently snowing but showing hope...Just not into scud running in the mountains.
