From: "wingnut" Five more days to Kitty Hawk! If you can believe the weather forecast this far out, the gathering is going to coincide with some the best weather we've had in the area for a while. The synopsis for Saturday on accuweather.com actually reads "Delightful with plenty of sunshine"! I can't remember the last time I saw those words in a weather report. I just hope the crosswinds aren't too bad.

A fellow pilot and I will be attending and needing accomodations for Saturday. Hotels nearby? Are others camping? Also, someone may have already done this but it would be nice if the FBO at Kitty Hawk would save some spots for us to park together. Just a thought.

From: "wingnut" Fantastic Maxwell. There are three hotels within a mile of the First Flight airport (FFA). I was planning on giving them all a call tonight to ask how busy they expect to be. I'll post some more details about hotels later today. If we can get enough people to make reservations, maybe we can get a group rate. There's no FBO at FFA. There aren't really any facilities at all. In fact, they have anchors in the ground but no ropes so bring your own tie-down rope. Also, there's no fuel so make sure you have at least enough fuel to reach the nearest airport. Dare County Regional (MQI) is only 7nm to the South West so that shouldn't be too hard. -------- Luis Rodriguez Model IV 1200 Rotax 912UL Flying Weekly Laurens, SC (34A) Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=138834#138834 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 01:45:57 PM PST US From: Lynn Matteson Subject: Re: Kitfox-List: Re: East Coast Kitfox Gathering! Can't wait...My charts should be here today, and I'm planning on leaving Thursday or Friday...about 560 statute miles for me to Fayetteville, then about 200 to "the Gathering." See you guys soon.
