Subject: Pietenpol-List: Chuck Gantzer's Tour AmericaPieters and interested,Chuck checked into operations at 1712CDT. He overnighted at Franklin, Ind. He says it was a perfect stop. Lots of jumpers, beer, women, beer and more women. Watched movies with the women last night while they all drank more beer.He slept in his bag. Took all the women for rides today with top of the head video cameras. Can't wait to see those shots. He adds that they were all beautifulgirls. He is trying for Sullivan County or Casey, Ill tonight. Says he will get a hotel as he even admits he needs a scrub.Dennis: I gave him your phone # and you should expect a call from him. Said he will ask FAA for a flight into Creve Coeur w/o xponder. What a tour.Tour operations shack________________________________________________________________________________

If he would rather not do the flight w/o transponder thing, he can land at Columbia,Ill. It is Sackmann Field on the sectional and is just southeast of St.Louis,MO and just out of the Mode C veil. They have av gas there tomorrow, andit is a long north/south grass strip. He can land at Sullivan Field which isjust north of old Valmeyer, Ill and about 5 miles or less south of Columbia, Ill.if he would like and we would let him overnight his plane inside if it rains.Neither has a tower and neither is busy enough to require a radio. Tell himto avoid Scott AFB if he can because of the large military planes flying inand out at all hours. On the other hand, I am sure he can get into Creve Coeur if he wants sinceit is a haven for antique planes and there is a museum there on the field whichhe would enjoy touring. They also have av gas as I'm sure he knows already. I've got to hand it to him, he has cajones the size of basketballs to trywhat he is doing. Wish it was me.Take care.Dennis ----- Original Message -----
