Across the USA-flight relay

Watching for a weather window to move the banner from Greg Johnson to Dave Phipps....looks like light rain over the Friday-Sunday time frame.  Greg, call me when you can.

I need to revise my earlier comments 


Greg Johnson still has Banner and Journal 


He is trying to get intouch with Dave Phillips in New Bern, NC for a Handoff


THEN it will move up to Va to either Bob Prange or Dr Allan White to pass around thru Va etc then to get it moving up the East Coast to TC in Massachusetts 


  
I'm in NJ can could assist with a handoff Between VA and MA.
 
Looks like banner and Journal will move from Greg and Wendell in Jasper  Ga to Dave Phillips in NC sometime this weekend 

Then start heading up the east coast

I'm glad to meet Dave somewhere and then get it to Prange. I'm sure Persinger would want a part of it too.
 
Greg texted me this morning have trouble making handoff to NC pilot out of NewBern

might need another option to get to Bob Prange from Ga

i might be available since my trip north to RI is getting postponed possibly for a week or so

open to options for either Greg or Me to move from Ga

Okay folks, I’ve finally transported the banner kit to cmmguy’s hanger in Hendersonville, NC (0A7).  Talk about a challenging landing and departure!  Wendell Turner flew us to the airport in his Musketeer 23, and a nice local gentleman, Bill, took the photos for us.  Cmmguy is in Oshkosh amd had given us access info to his hangar.  Thanks J.  
Now J will coordinate with someone from Virginia (Alan or Bob maybe) to move it along.

I apologize for taking so long, my planes has been down for avionics work and now a paint job.2619CCAA-7AAB-4575-9835-9801AAE31256.jpeg3C42CA17-716A-4C9A-991E-E08695F3181C.jpegE488106B-8D59-47DB-9B3D-686C6A6BD8CA.jpegB6AE7164-5DE5-4C34-BB64-1C744F52268B.jpeg

Welcome to the mountains. I wish I could have been there to greet you. I am glad you made it in and out safe and sound. We had a 182 run off the end of the runway by the FBO 3 weeks ago.

I have the football and will work out a delivery in the next week or so. I have a business trip next week to CT and will shoot for next weekend after.

I forget who could meet me but someone mentioned BlueRidge airport where the food is good and the gas is cheap... or something like that.

Am I seeing 3Z with its new paint job?  It sure looks good even parked rather than in a vertical climb.

I believe that was on the ramp in Tullahoma When Bob Prange and Charley Booton were there.

She will look like the picture below when finished. Incidentally, 15Z had the same paint job, less the musketeer decal on the tail.
