Hello Chums... :)...!

Jimbo's warning.... :o...!

For anyone who are not flying amphibians, (things with floats), there are alternative hard runways close to PYL and 1Z9 as well as the existing water landings...

...so, no need to get your feet, (or your engine), wet...LOL... ;D...!

PAWD, C05, and AK 97 are all hard runways.

...it is an unfortunate fact, Jimbo my old Chum, that unless the Tour/Flight involves high-speed aerobatics/dog-fights, in F-15's etc, the little ones very soon get bored, (as they do), and either annoy the "Regular Tourers" and disappear off into the sunset....somewhere else...or to watch Big Brother/Football/Jeremy Clarkson etc, on the 'Tele... :o...!

Suggest a cruising speed of "120 knots" in a little Default Cessna, and they disappear like clouds in a Summer sky...Trust me!... ::)...!

Unfortunatly I had to go to work last night so I'll try to make it for tonight. Can't promiss a thing because I also have to do some other things around the house (rebuilding the backyardwall and neighbours shed). If anybody is up to it, I'll see you tonight (maybe).

Crash ;) (busy, busy, busy)
