Here is my idea:
I own my own airplane and am addicted to this hobby like the rest of the crowd here.
I have seen some interesting pieces in the AquaSD sales threads.
Does anyone have interest in buying a seat in my plane sometime in early May for a trip from KSMO (Santa Monica) to KSAN (San Diego) for the purpose of making a shopping run to AquaSD?
I can accommodate three passengers (each must weigh less than 180lbs) plus myself.
Each passenger may bring back up to 50 lbs of cargo.
In an effort to offset my costs and offer something both fun and useful to the folks here, I am prepared to offer the seats for either 75 or 100 bucks each.
Yes thats more expensive than just buying and having your purchase shipped....but this is also a fun trip and if you happen to be looking for expensive corals etc, this offers a better solution than shipping your stuff.
I am 2000+ hour Instrument Rated Commercial pilot with a couple Flight Instructor ratings as well. As such I have flown in and out of San Diego just a helluva a lot of times.
The price of the seats does not equal the costs for me but it will help me offset it a bit.
Total flight time roundtrip = approximately 2 hours. Less if I drop the hammer lol
Anyway...thats my idea.
Thoughts?
PS. Sorry if this is not the right place to post this.
PPS If you barf in my plane...you will be publicly flogged by a herd of midgets. :a39:
