Paul, 53VG just added authentic malts to its menu - in your honor. They are served with real molasses cookies because that's what I like with my malt

I wish I knew that yesterday! Ernie and I could have been your first customers. In our ignorance we did a "sort of low pass" over 53VG and boogied over to Tangier for our first crab cake sandwiches of the season.

I will say the approach to 21 was interesting. You sure wouldn't want to land long. What are your operating hours?

A little beyond my 100 mile circle there Glen - but I appreciate the invite!

We accomplished the mission for lunch today at Willows - Nancy's restaurant. Good old-fashioned malts with extra malt - and a pretty good burger as well. Flew down to Cameron Park, swapped into the right seat of Mike and Laura Starkey's RV-10 so we could do a little EFIS tutoring, and enjoyed a nice cruise across the fertile lands of Northern California. Great airport dining, a smooth trip back to their place, and only a few bumps across the Sierra on the way home in Tsam. Worth the trip!

BTW Greg - I have come to enjoy a good "Ichy" now and again....

Hey Paul, I think a better tittle for this thread would be "How to increase your empty weight, without turning a wrench!!" Very dangerous idea here

That is one thing I really miss about flying in the Northeast. Up there, you can fly into Jaffrey, NH (KAFN) and walking down to Kimball Farms for one of their homemade ice creams! I am ashamed to admit how many times I made that trip in the 12 months I lived there.

Glad you found a good malt place. Anyone know of a place a little closer to San Diego??

Dan

Default How about stretching it to 130 miles

Fentons Creamery at the Nut Tree airport in Vacaville. Five minute walk from airplane parking.

Default Malts

I agree Paul. And no liquid malt syrup junk. Gotta have real ice cream and the real malt powder you can taste (and sometimes chew)....and plenty of it.

No flying here with all the soggy weather but I did end the day with a hearty Malt. Oddly, it's the kind of malt Paul requested made with the kind of malt Greg "suggested".

Milk, ice cream, a little squirt of chocolate and dark DME !

No, not "distance measuring equipment"!
