Please pardon the repeat question and the cross posting. I'm looking to join a flying club, or find a flying buddy, for flights out of FRG, ISP, HWV or HPN. I can't seem to find a good source. I've fumbled around the internet and come up with: WFC-HPN (HPN), Nassua Flyers (FRG), FEFC (FRG) and...

Not sure, if you or someone else can give me a month/year I will see if I can run it down. Mike OK, I think I understand now, but this isn't the one I was thinking of. I was thinking of the last article published when he "retired" from writing the Bax Seat column. My recollection has faded,...
