Default Free ride to the East Coast

Any regular Rennlisters, heading back East this weekend, we have an empty airplane departing the SFO Bay area at 0900 on Friday for upstate New York. PM me if this one-way flight works for you. No strings attached... just hate to fly an airplane coast to coast without benefiting someone. Consider it a demo flight!

p.s. Only caveat is that we will bump you, if a paying customer steps up but it seems unlikely at this point.

nothing worse then paying the flight time for the aircraft to get to you empty.

I wish that were the case, Tom... It has always been my ambition to ride in the back!

Just put it on cruise control :-) if I did not have my daughter coming home I would do it just for the experience.

Nice ride.

Can I bring my Turbo as check in baggage so I can drive it back to SFO?

That is one nice looking airplane cabin. Never been in a private jet.

Sincerely,

Macster.
