(4) Thanks to an unsung co-conspirator, Bob Metelko… Business Aircraft will discount fuel to $2.79 rather than the normal $3.16. We are trying to arrange overnight parking with them for those who need it (please let me know if you do).

Marty,

We’ll need overnight parking. I called Business Aircraft a couple days ago and they said the $10 overnight parking fee is waived with fuel purchase, so I figured parking there would work out well. (On the other hand, Million Air wanted $35.) Do any special arrangements need to be made?

Thanks,
Steve

Here’s the 500 mb chart. Note the location of the low pressures from the previous post are in the center of this trough. This means little or no movement.

Scott,

Check everything in the morning, but I’d say it is a go. At least it won’t be hot!

Thanks for your TIP/TOP forecasts for TIPPFI. We’ll give you a PIREP after the fact. Cheers,

Great to hear Marty. Got a little worried. A little low scud in the morning and that was about it. Sorry I missed it.
