Well my home airport is N85 or N40. They're like, 3 miles away from each other. But not too far from 47N, either.

If we were to meet up, I would have to drive, as a) I am not legally old enough to solo and b) I don't have any flying lessons.

It would be cool to get together though.

How far away are you from Millville?

How about this guys?

Seems like they are open and it's a nice x-country for all of us ...

Rotty, are you in? 

You know I'm right over at LOM Marco-my CFI is actually gonna sign me off to do solo cross-countries soon (*GULP*!!!!! :o), so maybe we could work something out.

I was thinking saturday

I'd like to, but I have to work Saturday (I basically do every Saturday). But if you come down for breakfast or on Sunday any time let me know an I'll meet you there. WWD is literally 18 miles from my house (it takes 2 hours to get there by car though!).

Cape May is at the very teeny tip of New Jersey. That's a 5-hour drive for me.

Come up to Sky Manor (N40). Nice restaraunt, but the approach is kinda tricky.

Plus, I can ride my bike there.

I'm in Cherry Hill.  Nearest airport is South Jersey Regional. ( KVAY ) Then Flying "W" ( N14 )

How about WWD this Sunday? I was in MIV yesterday and the owners (they own both the resturant at MIV and WWD) said they will closing shortly for the off season and won't be re-opening until the spring.

Hey Rim, I honestly don't know what's the situation with your parents. I don't know if I need to get permission in writing or something since you are under age.

I did the EAA Young Eagles thing and i took up 9 year old kids but that was covered (legally and most importantly insurance wise) under EAA's insurance.

In your case ... I don't know for sure.

Anybody knows what the rules are?

KVAY is anice airport.  The FAA wanted the to extend the
runways to use as a emergency landing for small
Commuter jets and planes but the neighbors were
fighting it.  I don't know were it stands now.  When the
time comes for me to take lessons it will most likely be
there.  Need to start soon since i'm in my 40's( but, still
think i'm 18 according to my Wife )

HeHeHe!!!!!

I imagine your own insurance would cover a minor as it would any other passenger, but I'd feel sorta... vulnerable... without  (legally binding? written?) permission from the 'rents. 
   In the very unlikely event that something happened and the kid gets hurt, the parents might be inclined (and encouraged by their lawyer) to go after the pilot for a little something extra (like everything you've got), unless it could be proven to the court that they gave permission and the pilot had insurance for passengers.
Come to think of it, they might sue anyway...
That's it; no more passengers for me...

Seriously, though...sounds like a question for AOPA.

Quote:


I'm actually available for Sunday. My lesson is 3-6pm ... so I can do lunch in Cape May.

Again.



Who's coming?

Quote:


Aye. I hear ya.

Did you call AOPA?

If you guys ever pick a solid date (other than a Sunday during football season,, geez).. let me know.. I'll pop over from Columbus, Ohio..

Well, see ?  I can fly six days a week and not miss football.. have both.. BUT IF I fly that 7th day, I only have flying..

Flying and football are like women.. ya gotta manage your time with them, to have more than one 

I live in Pequannok, NJ my airport (N07) is right down the street.

Hey Rotty... those are to outstanding day-flights. Burke Lakefront Airport is right on lake Erie (ala Meigs on Lake Michigan) and is within walking distance of great places to eat ( a cafe sitting on a pier full of WWII ships and a submarine), The Rock Hall and Cleveland Stadium.

Flying to Wright Patterson AFB Musem is something every pilot should do once in their life. You can't actually fly TO it (it's an AFB), but Xenia, Ohio is a short cab-ride away. Then.. you hop over to Urbana for the neatest $100 hamburger around. It's just how it should be. You land and taxi right up to the restaurant and can watch planes come and go from your table.

If you ever plan on making any of those trips (or anyone else).. PM me and we'll make arrangements to hook up (burgers are on me     )

Yeah,  ( I19 ) is the airport real close to the museum.. then Urban (Ohio) ( I74 ) is just NE..

I fly out of Don Scott Field ( KOSU ) on the NW corner of Columbus. It's biggest claim to fame is that back in the 60s.. a TWA 707 mistook it for Port Columbus and landed there on a 5,000 foot runway. They had to strip the interior an give it just enough fuel to hop over to Columbus' main airport, before it could take off safely. It also claims to be the busiest (most take-offs / landings) airport in Ohio ( Ohio State University bases it's flight training there.. plus a few private clubs/schools).

I'll get the tab.. you get the tip

Welll shoot! People talking about coming to Ohio?

Anytime you guys are heading toward Ohio especially the northeastern side let me know..

For example Burke Lakfront is only an hour or so away from here driving, I could meet you guys at Burke with a mini-van..

From there we could go somewhere for food and head to the rock hall....

Might have to be sometime when I'm not in the middle of college/work thing again...

Anyways, let me know next time you come to ohio..

I'm a student and a darn good one at that.
