Nick stopped in Upper Cumberland Regional for fuel and a little work on the plane this evening. I had a great time talking with him and I hope he enjoyed the Tennessee hospitality. Nick, let me know how the plane flew for the remainder of the trip.

Dale,

Do you live in Sparta, or Cookville? We need to get together I live in the Chattanooga/Dayton area...

Jay,

I live in Cookeville and currently fly a Cherokee 140. I got my private in April and have about 110 hours and am working on my Instrument rating. Plans are to finish the rating, get about 200 hours and move up to a V35 P or S. The wife and I are always looking for a flight somewhere, we make a lot of trips to Shelbyville for dinner. We'd be glad to get together, just call me sometime. 931-260-3030.

Welcome to BeechTalk, Dale!

Welcome Dale,

I fly into Crossville a couple of times a year to bring my Mom down to visit her sister. Our family is originally from that area. Beautiful country!

Welcome to Beechtalk. You will find the transition from the Cherokee to a Bo a snap. My preference was a Debonair, but what do I know.
My wife and daughters all went to a summer camp outside Crossville over the last 40 years. Great place. I flew into there many times, even back when there was a FSS there. Nice place. It was one of the few destinations I could get my wife into the plane to go to.

Thanks for all the replies. Whenever you are in Crossville, or middle Tennessee, let me know. We're always looking to meet people that like planes as much as we do and we love to hop in the plane and go. It's a great place to live(or retire), no state income tax, low property tax, and an airport every 20 miles!
