I 'might' be able to help, but my schedule is tight. Can only go on weekends.

FYI there is a dog being moved from Milton Fla to NC, looks like this weekend. Might be a good idea to see if you can get this dog to KPDK near Atlanta on Sunday this weekend since the first leg pilot will be headed back that way. (It's a flight on the board from Clearwater Fl to Cary NC.) It would require coordination.

Unfortunately, they are doing that move on Sunday & I'm already committed to a family function.

I fly out of Lake City, so keep me advised & ill see what I can do. I'll monitor this discussion thread.

Thank you George. So, if the transport was happening this weekend, you could fly out of SC and go where? Thanks so much.

Get the dog to Cordele, GA (CKF) and I will get the dog to Destin or whereever in the panhandle you need to get to. I would plan on about 2:30 EDT on Saturday. Sorry I can't do a Sunday flight.

Kathy, Sam,

Barring any bad weather issues, Saturday might be good.

Do you need me to get to Bishopville, or can you transport to Lake City for the first leg?

My calculations currently show a two hour flight to Cordele (KCKF), so a late am takeoff to meet Sam by 1430 would probably work.

Let me talk w/ the boss about this and maybe she'll accompany me.

Ok?

Kathy,

I've spoken with my better half and we can help.

Since Bishopville is just about 20 mins from Lake City by air, and we've been there before, we can pick up at your location.

I'd like to try to get there by about 1030 so that we are not rushed on getting to GA for the transfer.

Let me know.

Sam, looking forward to the hand off!

George,

We might want to to the handoff at PXE. Looks like the fuel is at least .60 a gallon cheaper.

Sam, a hand off at KPXE looks like a good idea especially with their low fuel prices. I'll plan for that destination.

Kathy, we can pick up at the Bishopville (Lee County-Butters Field) airstrip, just need to coordinate time.

I have a harness that will secure the dog into a back seat.

Looking forward to this,

Cathy,

Where does this dog need to go? I need an airport, contact name and number for delivery Saturday.
