Just looking at the 2006 calendar, and here are some dates that
might work for me, and fit with Bob P's suggestion.

Arlington runs from Wed July 5 to Sun July 9 in 2006. So if you
guys from the East can time it to be here for that, we join up
with you there.

Then on Sun head north to BC and Chilliwack/Langley, and spend a
few days local flying around the South Coast. There are a lot of
neat little airports and spots to visit here and on the Island,
for those on wheels only. And with the floatplanes, I can show
you some of my favourite spots, including my place out at
Harrison Lake. And Al P., I'm quite sure that any place we can go
(and get out) with our Rebels, your Moose will be OK, too. Will
pass on Snow Cap lake for now...

Then, would like to head further north to the annual Nimpo Lake
floatplane fly-in on July 15th. It's only a 3 hour flight from
Vancouver, but we could plan to be there a day or two before, to
check out the sights there, and then head out for parts east on
Sun Jul 16. I have to miss Nimpo this year, because my son is
getting married then, but sure would like to do it again next
year. No problem for wheel airplanes either, as they have a grass
strip there, too. And if the wheel guys want friendlier terrain
to fly over, there are safer land routes to get there, too, but
it might take you an extra hour or so.

From Nimpo, we could then take the north route across BC, Alta,
Sask, and Manitoba as we head into Ont. If we take our time, that
would put us at Wayne's place around Sun Jul 22, and give us a
week or so there, before Osh, for those that want to do that.

Anyway, that's my suggestion. How does that sound to you guys? I
still have to figure out how to get away from work for that long,
but that's my problem.

Walter

FWIW, i would suggest coming out here about
the 2nd week
in July, then heading down to Oshkosh on the way back. August
here tends to get hot & steamy, with poor vis. - a lot
like flying in
a hot milk bottle ! :-( Weather across
the prairies is usually
good in early July ....

Unfortunately, I may STILL not have my amphibs
! :-( :-(

Maybe we can plan the Ramble to go west in
early July, and
all fly back together .......
