That would be very unfortunate. Joe's Maule wont be on wheels till Tuesday late night as a wheel bearing had to be ordered and installed tomorrow afternoon. Camping is too cold, but maybe and hour of meeting and hangar talking with some local Maules? Please see again come out at 5:30 after work for an hour?crbnunit wrote:That leaves me out. The only day I could get out early enough to fly in for a while would be Tue. the 11th.
Anybody else who is able to make it?
Aero101? YellowMaule? Who will be there ? Or any other meeting place suggestion for wednesday? Or if Thursday would be better on Thursday?

I was kind of planning on it. No guarantees but I'll try.
I love Knik... when the wind isn't howling. Landing into a 25kt headwind makes you feel like a hero as far as landing length but it makes any kind of socialization difficult! There are LOTS of places to play out there though. Gets fairly windy at Bold once in a while too.
Post up a final destination and time frame.

You have to make up your mind about growing up and becoming a pilot. You can't do both!

I'm not going to be able to make it down there either, doing a 100hr and awaiting parts from Maule Air... Trying to snow up here today!

So, will you be there Wednesday night? If so, I'd like to try and stop in and meet a few more Maule guys. I work all day and would have to stop in after 5 if you are still around?cumuli wrote:Update on Maule - End of flying season Mini Fly-In Alaska on Oct 12th @ A13
WEDNESDAY 12th - BOLD airstrip (camping?)
Ray, counting on you as well for a stop after finishing your work day early.
Jim, I hope you can find your way down for this.
Kurt, you are in for sure???
Anyone else?

Is "picnic bench" at bold strip as yellow Maule mentioned or are you referring to the strip up knik next to the glacier? I was not able to fly into work today cause it was 22 at our house this morning. I'm planning to drive home as soon as I can escape work and fly out for an hour or so. Just need to confirm for sure where we are meeting?

There is a picknic bench at Bold as well. I won't be at Eklutna. I was there yesterday though! I just don't have the time to get out there this evening. In fact, it is looking doubtful I'll make it to Bold either!
