The only thing I would add tothat was the Fri. nite dinner at Mack, The feeding will be roughly 4-6 so that there is plenty of time to get back to Caveman before dark thirty. I think it is about a 50 mi flight in a straight line, but much more enjoyable, atleast for me, to make an early enening flight following the river. Probly closer to 45/60 min depending on speed.

will there be 100ll available at mack??

Wilga,

Lets see... when flying with a husky at 110kts my skywagon burns about 7.5 gph... if I slow that down to 80kts... I wonder what my fuel burn would be? I have never been patient enough to try it... maybe the fuel burn would actually increase!?!

Mack has fuel and is offering a $.20 discount /gal for particiants.
If you want to go up, pull back on the controls. If you want to go down, pull back farther.

Last year he took my N number; I sent him a check when I got home. We really loved the hospitality and small town character. Fantastic folks! :D :D :D I'll bring cash next time. :oops:

Talked to Ladd about the credit cards/fuel. He can do the credit cards but it would be simpler if you just brought some cash. He has to take the info home to run the card.
If you want to go up, pull back on the controls. If you want to go down, pull back farther.

Any ideas if caveman will be ok for those of us driving in? I never did scout the road .. Been working too much. We would head out there late afternoon sat.

Room for me +1 for dinner?

Anyone going to be at Caveman tomorrow? Denise and I are thinking about blasting out of here in the AM and getting there around lunch or getting somewhere around lunch.
