Thanks for all the tips, guys.
I might try the talk-in freq idea.

Not sure how taxi's are in Dayton. ??
Great in toronto, horrible at PIT, lousy at Cleveland airport unless
you call Westlake cab (off site local company); they treat you right.

Two votes for Stevens FBO...OK! Makes that easy...

Well, I was thinking alt-as in 'other than DAY'...but there aint none.
Guess I'm spoiled here in the Cleveland area. You can't go more than
10 miles here without tripping over an airport or two...most with at
least a VOR-A instrument approach.

I guess I could file ILN as an alternate...but Airborne might be a bit
PO'd if I actually landed there...
May as well make the alternate CMH or CLE...cuz if I can't get to DAY
it dont matter!
If it's much worse than MVFR I probly wont go anyhow. Need to get
the confidence level up first!
Can always drive at the last minute, and park at the mall.

Further suggestions welcome!
