Looking forward to it Paul, missed seeing you and all my Root Ranch friends!

 

[Tango Foxtrot]

I'll be there

 

[Paul Collins]

Great! As it now stands, the Root Ranch is closed to staff and firefighters only due to a very close fire out to the west. You can't see it from the cabins/lodges - yet!
Fingers crossed.
That's why we scheduled next year's fly in in June, and earlier June (Starting June 9th, 2022)!

Hoping for a safe outcome to all involved

I live 150 Miles east of Root Ranch in South West Montana. We have fires south, north and west of us. I stay close to runway and do 3 or 4 landings and put the Husky back in the hangar all you can see is straight down. We have Helicopter crews on the field fighting the Goose fire. I am staying out of their way and let them do their job.

So far, the Root dodged the fire. It was only 3 miles away, but burned to the south. The Fire crews have left, but just in case left the hangar full of hoses, etc. Let's hope they don't need them!

I am getting to know a buddy of yours, Jim Metzger who is the FBO at Weiser, Id airport. He claims he has know you for about 40 years. Small world!

[Paul Collins]

Great fellow indeed! He went through absolute hell with the Friendly Aviation Association - he can tell you all about it if you have a few days.
Hope to see you at the Root!

Actually had him and his wife over for dinner. WHAT A STORY!!! He has an A model AG CAT that he converted from a cropduster to an experimental biplane. He put a cockpit up front with a seat and belts for two. Nice R985 radial up front. He flew it on floats and wheels. In his hanger at Weiser. You would look good in that plane Paul. I am really going to try and make it this year. Since I moved to Idaho a few months ago, I really have no excuse not to.

[Paul Collins]

It will be great to see you! Yes, what a story.
Keep in touch.

Hello Paul,
I’ll be bringing a total of 3 Huskies to your Root Ranch get together. There are two of us from the Sandpoint area and one that will come up from Southern California. We stopped in last year in September and got a tour from the young man that cooks and seems to do a bit of everything else. Nice setup for sure. We also landed at the Flying B but no one was around. Anyhow we are all looking forward to the trip, and thanks for sharing such a wonderful place with all who fly in.
