Really bad news today, folks. But first I need to clear one thing up: the airplane is still in Boise, ID, not in Ellensburg like I had previously thought.
And now for the bad news: the plane isn't going to be arriving for several days, maybe even a few weeks. Even though the weather at home is really good (sunny, blue skies, a little cold), the weather in Boise sucks. The airport is located in an area where the pilot would have to go up and over a set of hills to get out. Currently the ceiling is at 500' and not looking to improve any time soon.
More bad news: Lynn, our pilot, doesn't have all the time in the world to get our airplane here because he needs to get back to his home and his job in California (completely understandable). So, the airplane will sit at the Boise airport until further notice.
We're currently looking into paying a pilot friend from the Arlington area to fly over and fly the plane back over here. The point of today would be: winter weather SUCKS and our poor airplane will have to wait a little while longer before we can shower it with love, oil and an awesome paint job. :)
More to come soon (hopefully),
Redneck Airlines
