'ON THE BEECH' in the Caribbean - new plans, new adventures ahead!

'ON THE BEECH'

 IN THE CARIBBEAN 2018

At last we should be living up to our aircraft's 'nose art' when we hopefully reach the Caribbean islands in March/April 2018. 

The route includes some of Latin America after an initial stretch down the US east coast via New York and Kittyhawk.

 South African friends and pilots John Herbert and Flippie Vermeulen will be sharing the flying and we are very much looking forward to meeting them again. Please note that this time, due to the much shorter sectors, we  should have at least one spare seat for anyone who would like to join us and share direct costs.

 Meanwhile the Beech will be prepared by ever-supportive engineer Roger Shepherd assisted by Chris Jacobs of Central Aero, Canada. 

Start date is set for 20 March departure from Hangar J at friendly Edenvale Airport, Ontario. we pick up our lightweight Cameron O-56 balloon from winter storage with Brian Boland in New Hampshire before heading south. These are two potential routings prepared by John Herbert.
