    Default 2017 Fly-In Flight Following

    For those of us who are flying to the Factory Fly-In here is a thread to share your tracking maps for your PLBs.

    We are looking to head out either Monday or Tuesday depending on weather.


    **Please**
    Courtesy dictates that you not share these links around too much. There is personal data on them. I will delete this thread once everyone is home again.

    Larry, looks like you have left out. Can you give us your route that you plan on taking?

    Day 1: KRRL - Merrill WI to KUBE - Cumberland WI to KMOX - Morris MN to KMBG - Mobridge SD.

    5.9 hours flight time, 23.171 gallons mogas/Swift. 3.9 gph average.

    Traveling pretty light throttle, 4500-4800 rpm because I'm flying with an Avid mk4 which is an 85-90 mph airplane.

    We hope to make Columbus Montana tomorrow where Av8rSed can catch up. There is a TFR between Big Timber and Livingston we need to deal with then it's less hassle the rest of the way in.

    Oh, Oh. Looks like Larry left his wallet or credit card behind and had to go back to retrieve it.

    Maybe Larry went back to get AV8r Sed. Looks like Paul's tracker stopped at the same place Larry went back to (MoBridge, S Dakota)

    I been watching this also. seems Larry took off after Paul got there. I think you are right, they all met up and left out together and Paul left his plb off.
