Guys, I'll be there all week and then some and I would like to meet as many Kitfoxers as possible. Most of the time I will be in and around the Homebuilt Hangar (formerly the old NASA hangar) near Aces Cafe. Please stop by and visit.

Heading out today, tomorrow, or Sunday...whenever the nasty weather
opens up a window to fly through. Right now Chicago is having airport
delays, so I guess it's best (for me) not to
start out today. My flight will only be about 4 hours, so I have to
pick a clearing in weather and go....HBC for about 4-5 days.

Overfly the big lake, Lynn - only 30 miles or so, Big Sable point to Manitowoc. It cuts 2 hours off your trip and avoids Chicago traffic. Use lake reporting service. Your Jabiru is reliable enough . . . now.

Lynn, I'm at Mid Ohio Raceway attending the Antique Heritage Racing Motorcycle Association event. I'll be in Osh Tue. Good luck on your flight. I'll be driving my van.

30, my ass! The shortest I've heard is about 65...real miles, not
those stinking nautical miles. I'm heading out first light tomorrow,
if it's not raining. If it is, and I can fly around it, I will. I
might just choose to fly along the shoreline near Chicago, but early
morning has a way of producing fog down there. If that's a no-go, I
can always fly down below 1900' and give myself the willies by
hugging Chicago's west side.
A friend of mine just flew to the Bahamas in his C172, and even he
turned around on a trip across Lake Michigan because he lost sight of
the horizon.
Nope, no water for this kid...but I can see why you mid-state folks
like the water....if you had to go around, it'd be a l---o----n---g
trip. See you there?

Leaving tomorrow. My Kitfox will be parked at the Ultralight field and my lovely bride is pulling the camper over. We camp with our EAA chapter just across the street from the Red Barn by the Ultralight Field.
I'll have my cell # on my prop tag. Give me a call.
Don't forget the Avid/Kitfox lunch at the seaplane base at noon on Thursday!!

Where are you flying from? The weather looks like crap this morning
all around Chicago. I'm waiting it out...it may be Monday before it's
really good flying weather...possibly Sunday PM for me.

Alright . . . I'll concede 45 miles, Big Sable point to Two Rivers, WI. At 9,000 msl, you don't lose the horizon for very long if the air is clear. With lake reporting talking to you every 10 minutes, it goes by pretty fast. Plus, if you time it right, you could ditch half-way across just about the time the car ferry goes by!
Kidding aside, the northern round-about takes quite a bit longer even cutting the corner Charlevoix to Beaver Island to Manistique. 2 shorter over water legs but more total time over water. Overall, the direct route makes sense for me, provided I've got the necessary confidence in my 582. I'm not quite there after this Spring's overhaul. Under the circumstances, I don't think I'll be coming this year.
Have a safe flight!

30, my ass! The shortest I've heard is about 65...real miles, not those stinking nautical miles. I'm heading out first light tomorrow, if it's not raining. If it is, and I can fly around it, I will. I might just choose to fly along the shoreline near Chicago, but early morning has a way of producing fog down there. If that's a no-go, I can always fly down below 1900' and give myself the willies by hugging Chicago's west side.
A friend of mine just flew to the Bahamas in his C172, and even he turned around on a trip across Lake Michigan because he lost sight of the horizon.
Nope, no water for this kid...but I can see why you mid-state folks like the water...if you had to go around, it'd be a l---o----n---g trip. See you there?

Heading out today, tomorrow, or Sunday..whenever the nasty weather
opens up a window to fly through. Right now Chicago is having airport
delays, so I guess it's best (for me) not to
start out today. My flight will only be about 4 hours, so I have to
pick a clearing in weather and go....HBC for about 4-5 days.
