December 17 flight plans anyone?
Is anyone planning on celebrating the 100th anniversary by going out and
flying on 12/17? Going anywhere special or simply converting cash into lift? So long as it's a VFR day here in the CA central valley, I'm planning on leaving work a couple hours early and going flying. Nowhere special, just planning on enjoying a chance to fly. -- Jack Allison PP-ASEL "When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the Earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return" - Leonardo Da Vinci (Remove the obvious from address to reply via e-mail) |

So far it looks like bad wx in the Northeast. I need to go on a biz trip
from Long Island to DC and I may fly the Warrior to JYO (Leesburg) and take a cab to my destination in McLean. I have a plane ticket on the Delta Shuttle but I'll hop in the plane if the stars line up. It'll probably be busy at the VFR altitudes so I would go IFR for the traffic and the ADIZ considerations. If not, I'll make sure to sit in my plane when I get home and bask in the glory of it all. Regards, Marco "Jack Allison" wrote in message ...

GRR sure sounds like a cold airport.

I'm going to Kitty Hawk right after opening the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center.
Hope to get a ride from a friend in a 172, but if weather doesn't allow I'll drive. Margy Jack Allison wrote: Is anyone planning on celebrating the 100th anniversary by going out and flying on 12/17?

If you are going to be in Northern VA you should try to visit the Steven F.
Udvar-Hazy Center of the National Air and Space Museum. It opens Monday and is WONDERFUL. Margy Marco Leon wrote: So far it looks like bad wx in the Northeast.

The Museum Of Flight (the Seattle one) has organized a 120-plane parade of local pilots from Boeing Field. I plan to be a spotter on a friend's plane. That's if the weather cooperates: go decision will be at 9am. -- David Brooks |

Is anyone planning on celebrating the 100th anniversary by going out and
flying on 12/17? We have three flying clubs getting together for a formation flight over the Okanagan Valley, BC Canada. Anyone wishing to join in should be at the Kelowna Flying Club building at Kelowna Airport before 1030 hrs. -- Tony Roberts PP-ASEL VFR OTT Night Almost Instrument Cessna 172H C-GICE |

Not even going to be flying,,, it falls on my lesson day, but I'll be on the
Frasca Sim for my instrument lesson practicing DME arcs (since none of my FBO's Cessna's have DME). I WILL be flying on my birthday, the following week (December 24th) so I will be celebrating my 4th 'anniversary' of taking my first lesson, ever (I'll be turning 43 and I took my introductory flight/first lesson on my 39th birthday). Have fun! -- -- =----- Good Flights!
