No more hauling around the PMC -- "Pimp My Cooler", AKA: "The Coffin"??

Wow, I can almost see Jim (Burns) and Montblack pumping their fists and
shouting "YES!" from here!



Call me a defeatist ...but this building will need an access point, no? :-)

Your papers please! "Mach Schnell....schnell, schnell."

Crap, I suppose you're right. We'll STILL have to transport the stuff
out to the campsite, somehow.

Wait -- a TRAILER! That's what we need! Keep all the supplies in a
trailer, inside the storage facility, throughout the year.

Then, when you come to OSH next year, you simply hook it up to your van
(which you have somehow magically transported onto the grounds, and
driven right up to the Exhibit halls without anyone noticing) and drive
it out to the North 40 -- where we won't have arrived yet!

You will then have to predict precisely where we will be camping, and
drop the load right *there*...

Okay, maybe there are some holes in the plan here...but we'll fill 'em
somehow!

Maybe you only need a plane BIIIIG enough? Then you can have the trailer
plus grill plus bikes plus your Piper all stored ...

Okay, well, if we pooled our resources, we could probably pick up a
used C-123 for pretty cheap. Or maybe a Caravan?

Jim? Jack? Montblack? You guys in?

I think a Dodge Caravan will fit into the back of a C-123.

That's Grand Caravan, thank you very much ....'The Airplane of Minivans.'

Is the C-123 (Provider) LSP? How about if I promise not to fly it at night?

Speaking of boxy, what was that plane down by the Ultralight pasture? It had
something written on the rear cargo door? Now there's a flying trailer!

Anyone have a link handy?

Montblack

It was a Shorts. Saying on the cargo door was "Taking it in the
shorts". More info he

Sorry Paul, I don't think this one qualiffies for light sport.
Something about twin turbines. But, if you're looking for a box with
wings, this is it.

Sorry, bought a plane already this year and one is the limit (for an
unspecified amount of time).

Still, I like the (non-Dodge) Caravan idea.

Just remember to take along a cylinder of compressed air to pump up any
"low" tires on the trailer when it is picked up.
