They could also arrange lodging for you :-)

God in Heaven, I thought that was gonna happen one time.
Ask me about Dalhart, Texas

And then when Mike and I got to SET, having just
flown across the country and spent two nights together,
his first words to (my) DH were, "she threatened me
with a knife, you know."

It's just cruel to post a teaser like that and then not tell the story...

Well, come to St. Louis (or PJY next year) and I'll tell
you the story.

Cheers,
Sydney

Janesville has omelets? I thought they only had the "best burger in town"
to paraphrase the menu. I suspect it's the only hamburger in town. :-)

to bad Iowa City is not on a line (not even great circle) between CA and
OSH

Since when does THAT have anything to do with where we fly?

It doesn't make any sense for me to fly to Janesville, WI for an omelet,
either.

Actually, they have great breakfast, and they serve it till 2 PM -- a big
plus for us.

You're on. :-)

Alas, it may have to wait until I can buy an airplane of my own.
Renting sucks. :-(

A friend and I are planning on flying our Ercoupes from California to

Off topic questions:

1. which engine?

2. what route?

Reason for asking: thinking about flying a 65 hp Champ coast to coast.

I have a C90 in an Alon Aircoupe and my friend has the O200 in an
older Ercoupe.

We're going to try I80 going out, and will come back that way, or
maybe the southern route through Albuquerque.

Read "Flight of Passage" by Rinker Buck and you will see your 65hp
Champ is capable of such a flight.

Just finished reading it. They had an 85, oversized to maybe 100 hp.
Need to be able to make 8000 to fly the pass.
