I'm a P2 looking to fly during the week. Any observer available, please let me know. I live in DC. Thanks.

Guy--
I am a genuine maybe for week-day flying, except for coldest days. A fairly experienced P-2 and H-2, but obviously also require an observer most sites. But if we have a SE, we will not require an observer for Bill's Hill (have flown Bill's numerous times). My bigger hope would be for a NW and an observer to join us at Woodstock. Advise a tel # ?

I am a new P-2 who is also interested in flying weekdays, because my work is sometimes flexible. If an upcoming day is looking soarable and an observer is planning to go, please post it on this forum. For example, this Wed-Friday I could do it.

I look forward to meeting you all soon!

I am happy to drive a carpool (although I found out the road to Daniels' launch, for example, is too rough for my car to go up to it). The Pulpit, Bill's Hill or Woodstock are no issue.

Hi, Guy-

Bill's is an east facing site NE of Breezewood, PA. You should download the Mid-Atlantic site guide in the member's only section of the CHGPA website for this stuff: www.chgpa.org/Members/members.html. If you don't have the password for that, send me a PM and I'll share it with you.
