Gonna have to make a bracket or something in your front pit, to carry your cane. I put in a request for vacationseveral months ago (7/16/04 to 8/16/04) but two weeks will be unpaid. They have to get everyone's request in, before they hand out the OK...I'm still waiting. Assuming everything is GO, Fri./Sat 16/17th I'll be heading 180 to check out some of our 'Texas' Pietenpols. Sun / Mon I'll head 090 to Shreveport, La. I've got a sectional out here, and Shreveport has a double big#8 shaped Class 3 Airspace. Those Magenta circles give me the Hiebie Jiebie's. Where is your airport ?? The Sport Pilot will be passed by then, and from there,We Will Fly 005 direct to Brodhead. Looks like about a 4 day trip. After Oshkosh, I'd like to continue 360, up around Lake Michigan, and then 170 backdown thru the state of Michigan, to Columbus OH (big sister lives there), then 090 to Wheeling W V (my hometown). From there, it will be 270 back toWichita KS. I'm sure there will be other 'Low & Slow' flyers that will join uson some of the legs. Does it sound like a pretty good cross country trip ???Chuck GantzerNX770CG________________________________________________________________________________
