By popular consensus (and lack of any more viable proposals) we will fly the popular "Black Canyon of the Gunnison" route thru west central Colorado USA. Please see Storm's flight plan and flight description by clicking "View replies to this Event" textual link in the lower right of the initial event post.
We will be flying single engine light general aviation aircraft capable of 120 knots (your choice). Aircraft permitted in this Friday night group flight will be VERY tolerant but please try to maintain the maneuverable bush plane spirit of tonight's group flight.
Contrary to tradition, there will be no single flight lead for this canyon run group flight. Instead, any member is welcome to volunteer to lead a single leg of the three legs involved to show us the VFR route. Flight leads will be decided upon at the time of our initial airport departure.
We will depart Gunnison, Colorado (KGUC), stop at two airports and conclude at the challenging Eagle-Vail (KEGE). Those four airports on our route are:
KGUC - Gunnison
7V2 - North Fork Valley
KGWS - Glenwood Springs
KEGE - Eagle-Vail
As is customary, we will gather at KGUC Gunnison at 21:00 (9:00PM) Eastern time and depart reasonably soon thereafter.
Again, please read the more detailed flight plan located in replies to this event. Please post the encouraged and appreciated flight screen shots as replies in the Event thread also.
