If anyone is interested. Some good grub and a little flyin.

Where's Gateway?

Where's Gateway Man, I been pushin this place for years. With any luck, you'll see next month . It's about 40 south of Grand Junction Colo. http://www.gatewaycanyons.com/ on the Delores River. Some real good canyon flying down to it. And It just keeps gettin better from there on down to Lake Powell. They got food, better than most in the 4 corners area.

G,
What time ya gonna be there?

I gotta drop a radiator off to a guy in Nucla, so should be a 9CO3 10:30ish. I want to go around to the regional FBO's and see if they/or anyone will give us a discount on fuel for the flyin.

Appreciate your efforts shortfielder..with this wx we are having I'll be lucky if I can even make it off the ground here Sun. HC

I'll try to be there. The 206 needs a shakedown cruise, just got it out of Ron's shop. Looks like its gonna be a great day!

Let me see how we do with this current snow. I may try to pop over your way Sunday if the weather is good and can get my plane out.

hope ya can make it,supposed to be pretty nice out. sofar

Well it's not paved so I'd have to get permission from the school's insurance company to land there...and that's not going fast, I've been asking for permission to others for a month now and haven't heard anything back yet. So I guess I won't make it!

maybe you can hitch a ride w/Bill????????

Tadpole,
Maybe you can take the t-41 to Nucla and catch a ride?

I'm not a member of that club anymore, I only fly the Citabria now.

Nice!!

So fly that to Nucla and hitch a ride It's AWWWWFULLY good food, and you'll be in REEEEEALY good company

I can stop and get ya! You could stop in Del Norte as well and ride over. We will probably leave around 9. If Laura and the kids go I will have one extra seat, if they end up not going, I will have lots of room.

Come on Tom, loan em the cub, bet he would buy b'fast for that.

I'll have to think on it tonight. Nucla would be at least a 2.5hr from Denver...so 5hrs at $110/hr plus some fuel that "should" be reimbursed. Del Norte is around a 1.5 from Denver, so it shaves 2hrs off the rental cost going that way and allows me save money and still give you some gas cash Tom.

The crappiest part of the Citabria, is I have to drive 90 minutes just to get to it...hahaha. That translates in to some mighty early morning to go out for breakfast.

Plus, my wind limits are still conservative in that thing...so ya...we'll see. I am off for the next 9 days so I plan to fly it a couple times.

How about Gunnison? Montrose? I have to warn ya: only 7 hours on an overhaul, I will be following roads to MTJ. Lots of meadows on the Ump plateau.

I like the way you think but I doubt I can be covered on anyone's insurance or trust with my experience...haha. I think I'm just under 30hrs of TW time now...10 in Super Cubs, 12 in the Citabria, a couple in a Tcart, and then some other various things that don't really matter.
