Ross, Danny and I are meeting at 52F with engines warmed at 0800 Saturday. Destination will be either KSEP for breakfast, or Hicks for breakfast (after some formation practice).

Jay has a final inspection going on at Hicks 0900, so we'll probably end up there sometime in the morning to say hi.

We'll be on 122.75 around 0815 with a destination if anyone in the area is on freq.

Missed ya

Sorry I couldn't make it guys, but barbeque at 8:00 a.m. just doesn't appeal to my old stomach. I went to Sulphur Springs for a nice pancake breakfast at the Red Rose Cafe across the street from the terminal. The ramp was empty but the restuarant wasn't. Must be a favorite of the locals.

The weather was great, the -8 jumped into the air on the return flight -- 2500 fpm climb and I was indicating 120 kts. Got to cruise alt of 4500 in a hurry. I suppose being quarter tanks and solo helped.

Went to Gainesville (KGLE) for fuel. 100LL hit that magic $4 per gallon:eek:

Back at ADS by 11:00. Great morning.

Ya'll missed a good one. Good breakfast and lots of talkin and pointin.

See everyone in the near future.:D
 
Yea who can resist a good barbeque sandwich for breakfast :eek:

I made it Hard 8 about 3pm for my usual casual Sat afternnon run on some chicken, gas at XBP (Bridgeport) is still $3.69 so I filled her up! Pretty sad this is considered cheap these days.
 
Breakfast!!! not BBQ.

There is a breakfast place at the end of the airport road that we go to every so often (you turn right to go there). Turning left goes to the Hard Eight BBQ.

:),

ps: Good crowd at Hicks. Pretty packed. Pancakes big. Bacon only so-so crispy (my order).
