    Dog rescue pilots wanted

    There was a huge bust of a fighting ring of dogs in Cleveland, and EAA Chapter 1252 is trying to help save 2 of the dogs by getting them moved to a welcoming rescue in Austin, TX. The rescue coordinator - Julie - has put in her request to Pilots and Paws and to Animal Rescue Flights, but so far there don't appear to be many pilots on the middle-of-the-country leg.


    We need a few good pilots to cover the middle of the country. (it's tax deductible)




    Here is what we have so far:



    This thing is shaping up now for 3/25. Please feel free to forward to other pilots you may know in the areas where we still have TBD.



    Leg #1: CLE to Cincinnati area (~200nm) - Eric (me)

    Leg #2/3: Cincinnati area to Memphis - (maybe two legs here, about 350nm direct).

    -- Cincinnati to Nashville (~200nm) - TBD

    -- Nashville to Memphis (~171nm) - TBD

    *Eric can stretch and do CLE to Louisville if someone else can stretch and then do Louisville to Memphis (~278nm)

    Leg #3: Memphis to Texarkana (~225nm) - Mark

    Leg #4: Texarkana to Houston (~231nm) - TBD.

    I copied and posted this on VansAirforce, maybe they have some helpers over there.
    It's just one dam job after another

    That's what they get for letting Michael Vick out of prison.....
    Unfortunately in science what you believe is irrelevant.

    I have flown for Pilots N Paws. WX permitting (I'm not quite yet IFR certified), I could handle the Texarkana-Houston leg (I'm based at Pearland Regional (KLVJ) SE of Houston, or a Texarkana-Austin leg.

    Hi,

    We could POSSIBLY cover the Cincy (or preferably Dayton) to Memphis leg in our Seneca (need to exercise the plane and pilot anyway), HOWEVER it would have to be 24 March or sooner, or after 1 April.

    I had no idea that rescue dogs were licensed to be pilots, or that there was a hiring press for them!
