The trip
started with the flight briefing at 0700 hrs at the Homestead General
Manager’s office.
The
ground crew left Homestead around 0730 followed by a 0745 takeoff from
Homestead with Dick Bronnenberg, Danny Galletti, Barry Hawkes, Bob Musgrove
and Ron Russell.
The trip
to TNT was smooth but had an 18 kt. Headwind.
Rich
Bragassa joined the group at TNT.
The wind
picked up around 0930 which made the leg from TNT to Everglades City a bit
rough.
Terry
Chandler and Ron Ohm arrived at Everglades City as the group was leaving for
lunch.
After
checking in to the hotel, we returned to the airport for a little afternoon
flying around the Ten Thousand islands.
After
dinner we returned to the hotel to get some sleep for an early departure.
The
flight left Everglades City at sunup, stopped at TNT for fuel and continued
to Homestead.
After
landing at Homestead, we discussed the weekend trip for over an hour.
