Across the USA-flight relay

New good contact phone numbers for all pilots
This way pilots can coordinate time and place for Hand Offs
So, pm or text to me

Nelson will be publishing an updated map of pilots signed in to date
Looks great
Vacant areas starting to fill in
Could use someone or more in Oregon/Washington State areas -
Thanks for everyone pitching in !!
Getting close to putting first pilot into the air 🤞
 
Attempt to map out locations of relay pilots - - - -

Just a minor contributing member for this effort .... but here is what I have for the team:

- map of current volunteers (version 002). Looks like I will be heading west and buying Simon lunch in New Mexico (?). Ideally, each pilot can land at the next person's home field, drop off the item, and reduce the coordination requirements of a displaced meeting airport. We'll see .... with hopefully more persons stepping forward.

- the pilot list I used is attached (I went to airport info in AirNav for zip codes). Some didn't make the map :( (see the yellow high-lites or the missing zip codes). Sorry.

Fred will manage the route and flight order of states. Excellent effort !!

And my latest idea .....

Include a blank page book (aka - Walmart ofc supplies area?). Each contributing pilot puts a photo of the bag/box in front of something fun (mine will be the Alamo in the background) onto a page, with a short hand written note. Sweet !
 
Nelson -Great minds think alike !
I have a BAC Banner and a leather Journal Book that will be handed off from pilot to pilot
Each pilot will sign banner and list his route
The each pilot will have his own page in the journal to do alittle write up of his time
Something as simple as time, date, Route and anything else they would like to write- no limit !!
Along with any photos they would like to attach
At the end we will summarize and give to our President (JP) for Posterity!!!
 
Don’t forget
Need emails and phone numbers
Won’t be posted openly— only sent to other pilots in the Relay!!
Thanks Again
Fred

Keep that contact info coming! Got about 75% of those signed in...

Also, please keep signing up- we can use the pilots and planes.

Thanks

Getting ready to pick a Relay Start date in next few days and would love to have someone from South Carolina and Kentucky, and Al, Ms and La on board before we start, If Possible!!
So if you know of anyone in any of those states could you see if they might like to join in .

If not we will employ some pilots to pull multiple states

Thanks
Fred

ps. Don’t forget about getting me your contact info!!

Thanks Again
 
Looking at 1st Plane out either weekend of November 13th or November 21st
Will post by mid week next week and will personally contact first few pilots!!

****Remember I still need all your Contact Information, especially a good phone number to give to pilot before you and after you for scheduling!!*****

Sent an email out to all pilots signed in for BAC 48+ Relay yesterday to test and make sure I corrected copied info supplied
Thanks for responding
Fred
ps. Still need emails and phone numbers for about 14 pilots !!
 
For the AL-MS-La leg (or any combo thereof) free post buy inspection at KALX. I'm mobile enough to get to the airport and bac. Bring a yellow pad, pencil, and barf bag.
