I think next Sat is AOK with me. I like the gas price at KFYJ !!
Let me check my schedule and I'll call you tomorrow.
I have a medium crate that they can fit in and we can just transfer the animals there.
I'm in an M20E Mooney.

I cannot do Saturday.. I have a lunch appointment that cannot be broken.. Sunday is OK.. I'll talk to Lee about Sunday today around 6pm.
I can do Friday if that is better for a 2nd leg pilot.
I'll post more later after I talk to Lee.

Greetings… I’ll be flying from Florida to N40-Sky Manor Airport in Pittstown, NJ next week. My planned day is Wednesday (2/6) with a backup of Tuesday (2/5) if weather looks better. I’d be only too happy to make a stop in Shelby, NC and bring them back to N40 if that’s helpful. Please e mail me direct if I can be of service.

We are all set for Sunday. I will meet Bill in Northern VA for the transfer of the 4 little guys. I anticipate a 30 min turn around in VA and a 2 hour flight home to Northern NJ, where I will meet Jennifer. We may have one challenge with the weather in the north, while it's to early to tell, the forecast is calling for some snow on Sunday which could present a problem.

I'm all set but will be checking the weather and if questionable will call Lee in the morning before I leave for Shelby.
If we have to cancel I'll call Dieanna in Shelby.

Notice to all. Lee and I conferred a few minutes ago and agree to cancel this flight due to the likelihood of ICING enroute.
We will re-look at the weather early in the morning but as of now, we are saying STAND DOWN.
I'm open for a trip 1/2 way to West Point VA during the week if Lee or another pilot can pick up the second half.
May combine this with taking another pup from Charlotte to Salisbury MD.
All involved should have been notified by now via telephone.

Agree Bill - it's currently snowing and sticking here in NJ and it appears that this is going to keep up until tomorrow early afternoon according to weather reports. All parties have been notified and I am going to reach out to the pilot who offered to help out on 2/5 or 2/6 to see if he can get the pups up to us. If not - I will be in touch to see when we can reschedule if possible. Thank you so much for helping out and I'll be in touch! We appreciate everyone's efforts to bring these 4 pups home!

Hi All,

I have reached out to Matthew Kiener (up thread offering to fly the pups 2/5 or 2/6) and haven't heard back. Is there any chance someone could help us get them up to the NYC area this week or weekend? All 4 of these pups are adopted and have families eagerly awaiting their arrival home:) Please email me at [email protected] or my cell is 917-533-3857! If I hear back from Matthew - I will update!

Thanks,
Jen
