Of course, us TWO can go, just it costs more.

Yadda yadda yadda...

8hr flight, with one gas/pee stop.


I can do door to door to a friends house in Denver faster than taking Southwest (with minimal time arrival waiting in the terminal) and I figure..that for you...a flight from SFO to Kansas City, then rent a car and drive...we'd be about an hour faster than that still.

..and no screamin babies.

Speed, is your Bonanza pressurized? If so, sweet. I'm sure we can arrange a pickup/drop off at the airport for you guys.

Speedtoys

No..not pressurized. I dont have that kinda bank.

Bout the cheapest you can fly 4ppl in style at 200mph, is a BE35.

You can buy nice M35's these days for about 50k...and cruise 190mph all day long.

ONE were looking at, guy wants 60, originally wanted 90, but its worth 40 (Engine TBO'd).


We'll call him back in June..see if were still the only people to call him back.

Just helped pull this '47 goddess out of a farmers field. Hope its back on it's feet soon. Don't ask, aint telling the story but it wasn't me that put it there.

I at one time many moons ago worked for AMR Combs now Signature. Got to fly in a lot of different aircraft in the right seat. King Air C90, F90, 200, Beechjet, Baron, Citation II but the most fun was the Gulfstream IV after delivery from the aircraft interior shop. It was a 45,000 ft boner from BHM to DFW. I miss that plane.

Just booked it like Dano on the room. I'll be there in my landjet. If you guys need a pickup, let us know.

P.S. Sean if you need a hand cleaning parts on the plane.....let me know.

Looking at the wing root in the first pic - I can't see the multiple massive bolts to hold it on that I thought I would see.

Do the wings flap much on those old V-tails?

SeanR

No flappy wings.

There are 4 good sized bolts each wing, two top/two bottome that hold it on. If you thought getting some of our 20 year old bolts out of a 928 were bad, try 60 year old ones that are an inch in diameter

SeanR

Bump for interest.

Have we a an idea on what vendors will be there this year?

ReDesign by FEATHER

That's a good question, Sean. I plan to be there and have my reservation. However, now I wonder if being there as a Vendor (of sorts) will require meeting any special criteria in order to "vend" anything that I might bring with me, such as Spare Tire Covers, New Cowl Covers and, by then I am pretty sure, New Rear Wheel Well Liners, and maybe even another little creation that I have in mind to do when I am finished with the WW Liners, if before then.

Speed, let me know the details of your arrival and I will meet you at the airport to take the planeload to the hotel.

I worked at Memphis Aero when it was bought by AMR during their FBO buildup. I left the prior to the Combs acquisition. Didn't realize I had an alum on the board!

It's good that some of us are staying over Sunday evening. More time to see old friends, and to make some new ones.

Likewise staying Thursday and Sunday - need to clear the hangover before heading South.
