Thats great, I'm glad that someone has finally gotten the Barlands to finally get that plane out of the hangar ! . I think we are leaving around July 1 with a first stop in Cabool, MO. It's a little out of the way but not much. Then on to NM for the whoop-de-do then probably the southern route over El Paso and along the border...maybe we can help spot illegalsjlwild wrote:Ed,
Bruce is correct ! Lolly and I are planning on flying N3415D to the convention. There is even a rumor that Scott and Ann Barland will fly their totally restored 1953 B model to the convention from Georgia . Their plane is beautiful .
If all goes well, we all might meet up at the Artesia, NM "A Whoop Tee Do" stop over hosted by Stephen Brinderio and the Benedict's on July 8th. Now if Bruce and Teresa feel adventurous and up to it for the "Long Distance" award they could try flying from eastern PA

Re: Convention flight
If as many of us are able to get to Artesia as it looks like we will TSA, Homeland Security, Border Patrol, ICE, FBI, CIA, etc. will probably think we are an invasion force and send black helicopters & F-16's to check us out. Wouldn't that be a hoot

What's Ol' Gar flying? Has he cleaned the empty St Pauli Girl bottles out that were no doubt deposited in the back seat after consumption while he sat in the front making airplane noises cause that plane surely doesn't run. Next thing we'll hear Paul Wood will be your right flank in the V formation.
