I thinking about flying (commercial) to see my mother in Mesa around the time of the Monument Valley fly in. Who is still planning to attend? John if it would make any difference I can be there with a car to shuttle people get fuel as usual.

Anyone interested in Monument Valley 2011?
Looking at the calendar, 19-22 May 2011 (Thu thru Sun), looks like our
normal time frame to have the 2011 Kolb Unplanned/Unorganized Monument
Valley Flyin.

Hi Kolbers:
Since I sent the above post to the Kolb List yesterday, I have decided not
to try and fly to Monument Valley this year.
For those of us that fly in, there is a lot of walking and standing around
involved in camping and living during the event. After getting entirely
honest with myself, I do not think I am going to be capable of having fun
and enjoy camping and walking around the area for four days. Being entirely
dependent on hitching rides, calling the shuttle van, etc., would take away
a lot of the fun of attending the flyin. I will not know for sure if I can
be comfortable camping until I fly to Sun and Fun 30 Mar. If I discover I
can not be comfortable and enjoy the show, I can get back in the mkIII and
be home the same day.
I have flown to every MV flyin since the original in 2003, through 2008.
Last year I missed because of my accident. Those that did make last year's
flyin said I was a lot more comfortable in the Rehab Hospital than I would
have been trying to camp at Gouldings. I think I would have rather eaten
and slept in sand. Last year we had zero Kolb aircraft show for the flyin.
By all means, do not cancel the MV Flyin. If you have a couple Kolbs in
attendance, you can have a lot of fun. I will miss it, as I miss many of
those regular attendees, and close friends that are no longer with us.
