Hey Guys,

Are we set for May 19th thru 21st at MV? As far as I'm concerned, those are good dates. Also, where are you tent guys gonna camp? If you're gonna camp in the Tent area, then I'd like to reserve RV spots close to that. On the other hand, if you're gonna camp up where Jim had his trailer, then I'd like to get close to that. Whaddaya think?

Are we set for May 19th thru 21st at MV?>>

Hi All and a Happy New Year.

Can anyone let me have info on MV. Apart from being spectacular and a long

way from anywhere else ....well...thats it.

What accomodation is there? Do I have to rent a trailer? What do you all do

apart from fly , early and late presumably, and talk.

That sounds OK by me if someone can find me a spare seat and get my feet

off the ground accasionally but it is Wendy`s vacation as well and just

driving around a desert in the heat looking at rocks is not going to appeal

to her for long.

Anyone point me in the right direction or maybe the Kolb fly-in later in

the year is a better bet?

Latest on my plane. She looks lovely, by the way. Permission to test fly

was requested last November. Officialdom sat on it for almost a month and

then returned the form as I had not signed it. Jumpin` Jehosophat! Returned

the form last Dec 5th. After several pokes from Kiwi Mick, who wants to

get my plane out of his hangar, a phone call yesterday elicited the promise

that the Permission will be granted today (Friday) so I may get it tomorrow.

I am not holding my breath. Bureaucracy!

The weather now is pretty poor so when testing actually takes place in the

lap of the gods.

So whats new?

Hi Dave/Gang:

As far as I know, those are the dates we decided on.

I plan to get there on Thursday, 18 May, more or less.

Pat,

I/we could describe things but probably the best bet is to go to

www.gouldings.com and get it straight from them.

For anyone who gives a flip. I plan on being on my third MV outing. And for

all of you who have never been there. You are missing one of the great

wonders of the world, and reasonable.

Pat, take a look on my website, in the Monument Valley pages under

Traveling. Lots of pics there, showing the layout, as well as the

scenery...........

........which reminds me - I got so caught up in the magazine article on the

last MV trip that I forgot to build my own page. Just recently ran across

the pics I'd prepped for it. Lar. Do not

I have a ford. Would that do? It doesn't provide much shade though. Although

I do have chairs. If I start know i could make it As Ellery said 1900 miles

and he's closer!

Vic you only have 1917.4 miles from KMLT to get there 6.1 miles more than I

would have from KBGR its 1911.3 Get your plane done then we will do some flying

I would love to go to MV fly-in but I need to sell the firestar and get into

a Mk3 Classic to make trips like that

Anyone willing to make a deal on a classic for me and take in trade a nice

firestar with skis wheels floats and trailer ready to go just add Pilot and

fuel

I am interested MK 3 classic in a fixer upper ,total wreck it dosent matter

to me I will probably rebuild it and make changes to it anyway

Pat, take a look on my website,>>

Hi Lar,

impressive lot of pics and a nicely connected commentary. What a lot of

talent there is among the Kolbers on the list.

Pity that I had not discovered the list, and you, when I came through Palm

Springs last year. I would have enjoyed a beer or two in your company. In

the event I had to make do with some good food and good jazz.

The stuff on MV is very enlightening. I have looked at the Goulding website

as well and it looks a great place to stay, and fly.

At the moment I am pretty much commited to getting a new house into livable

condition. As I have sold my exisiting place and the new owner has arranged

to move in on March 13th, I am running out of time.

If I have any money left by the time I move house I reckon I shall be due

for a holiday. Wendy definitely will. I only have the responsibility of

knocking down walls, replacing windows and doors but she as the wallpaper

and curtains stuff to do. Much more demanding.

MV looks very tempting but we have some friends from Florida planning to

come over and they want us to accompany them to Poland looking up their

roots. It looks as thouigh the times may clash. We shall see.

No Permission to test fly the Extra has arrived yet. I really thought it

might be here by today.

Pat
