Weim Jorga needs a ride from Kenosha, WI to Fort Collin, CO

Earliest I could be available on Saturday (maybe) is 2pm. I'm unavailable on Sunday, but will look at whether Monday is a possibility - I may be able to re-schedule a commitment.

That would be great ehdeitenbeck. That would shorten Stephens' leg. If possible I would like to shorten my leg back to Grinnell (KGGI). That could leave you KGGI-->Omaha.
Stephen, I'm flexible on days so will meet your availability.

Great! Please send me a private message. I'll hook you up with the other two pilots and we can see what can be worked out.

Thanks!

Ok - I'm good for Saturday afternoon or evening or Monday.

I'm waiting to hear from my partner for Monday availability. Sat is forecast to be 20+ kts winds at surface here in Chicago and 40kts at 3000ft from west, more higher up, would prefer not to fight that. Monday far more favorable for us. Thoughts?

Hi John,

Yeah - I see that on ADDS now. Well, it would be a great ride eastbound... I would just go high EB and low WB.

Monday could work for us too. Either way at this point, because it isn't the wind that I don't like, its the turb, and that doesn't look bad.

Jorga made it to Fort Collins, safe and sound.

Thank you, Stephen and John for a job well done!

[hayne]

Yes - thank you John for fighting the headwinds! On our flight, by staying low, the wind subsided quite a bit by the time we got to Western NE.

Stephen

[JohnC]

Good for you!
Fortunately we got to ride the wind home. I saw 170kts GS a couple times; Bonanza performance for Cherokee price.
Glad we could get it done.

Thank you all who helped Jorga get to her new home.
