Re: First Time Here... Need some help
You say across the country..........just how far are you talking about? Most of our pilots fly single-engine planes, and are therefore limited to 250 nautical milesDoggiemama wrote:Hi,

(200 ground miles). While a trip can be done in several legs with 2 or 3 pilots, longer transports are very difficult to pull together. You need the pilots to all be free the same day, weather to cooperate and possibly an overnight foster.
Keeping this in mind, here is how you make a request:

4. Fill in the subject line, zip codes, answer ALL the pre-launched questions in the form
5. Scroll down and click on Submit, your request is now posted.
You can log in and check your request every day on the board buy clicking on and opening your post and looking for any replies from pilots.

Re: First Time Here... Need some help
Thank you for your reply!! I was thinking about the distance (Santa Ana CA to Myrtle Beach SC) & it IS a huge undertaking... especially with the freaky weather that we've been having... I'm going to try another venue with the operation Roger truckers pet transport... it will probably take a bit more time, but usually the weather conditions don't affect the drivers as much as they do with the pilots Thank you again for replying!
