Correction, it is only 3,000 pounds. Therefore only 15 people could be accommodated. :D

Thanks for posting this, Ken.

I am happy that you came through this in pretty good shape.

This will help to remind all of us to not be complacent at launch time. I always look to you as one of the more diligent pilots.

I have been paying Chip for it since the beginning and I very rarely use it. I do appreciate Chip making it available and I am happy to pay for having the use of it.

Please keep in mind that this brewery setup is thanks to Rob Burgis with his son as a part owner of the brewery. We were treated as royalty because of them.

Wind Sock

Merry Christmas SHGA!

I have donated a new wind sock for the top of Kagel and I put it in the Windsports office. I am hoping that someone on here will volunteer to take it up and get it installed.
