Any chance someone wants to fly over to Sunriver this weekend? I need to get over there to pick up a car and drive it back, and would gladly chip in (plus buy lunch) if I can find a ride. I can meet at any area airport. Call or email if interested. 503-709-1492 bill dot inman at wwwinc dot com

I believe Sunriver runway closed until April 29

Might check NOTAMS. I understand that the Sunriver runway is closed until April 29 for resurfacing and widening. Their website includes the closure notice: http://www.sunriver-resort.com/sunriver-oregon-airport.php

Would be a nice weekend to visit.

Oops

Thanks for the heads up. Guess my idea is out the window.

Well as it turned out it was not out the window, I delivered Bill to the Bend airport this morning and he took a Taxi to Sunriver, we had a great flight, 45 minuets over and 40 minuets back.

Stay in touch Bill, it was fun!

Thanks Russ!

Yep. VAF continues to amaze me -- I post the message late in the evening on Friday, and 12 hours later I've had a fun flight over the Cascades and met another great RVator. Thanks a ton for coming through Russ! Here are some picts shot from my blackberry with a dirty lens (so not very good quality).

sunriver has on their web page that the resurfacing was finished in april.
sounds like they are open for business as usual

I guess those were old posts! I hadn't noticed!

Thanks for clarifying....maybe we'll hit that up next weekend.

Is it a destination you recommend for a romantic evening with the wife?
