Re: Northwest get together
Hi Gene,
I'm in Kent, WA which is about 10 miles SE of the end of lake Washington.
Airports are convenient 5 miles south, 10 miles north, and 15 miles southwest. I
imagine the Beech has about 600lb payload and that is not enough for 3 of me! :-(
But it's more than enough for 2 of me and some luggage. It's still a long haul
for you by yourself (costwise and flying time). If you are up to it I'll be
ready! We would need to see what Phil is doing, and I was going to call him next
week anyway. I'll let you know what transpires. Lots of possibilities.
