Understand some of the guys have been going to KOBE Sat. mornings. Not sure if that is still going on or not.

Cedar Key is always fun.
Gary/Venice guys - how's that sound?
Albert Whitted(KSPG) now charges a ramp fee even though you're going to the restaurant. This went into effect when the new FBO tookover. Too bad, as it's one of my favorite airports.

Default Disregard Albert Whitted then....

Forget about Albert Whitted. If supporting the FBO's restaurant isn't enough, then I can find many others that appreciate folks patronizing their facility.

A "second wave" at around 0900 sounds like a good idea.

Maybe we can convince the "early birds" to bump up to a 9:00 meeting time. If enough guys are going to fly in at 9, count us in. We got up at 5:45 last Wednesday to go tto SEF and when we got to the airport everything was IFR between us and Sebring. I won't get up tht early for a flight anymore unless I have to. I retired so I don't have to wake up that early.LOL. Hope to some of the others agree to go later---Turbo!

rog, it is best to check the wx when you wake at 5:30. that day i never got out of my PJs. ill wait around for the second wave any day. just leave me a phone message that you are coming.

by the way, the cold line is not palm beach but vero beach, and aero acres has both parallel grass and paved runways. need to keep you guys in line.
