    Ride from Atlanta Airport

    Hello... it's almost time---;):D

    Arrival---Friday, May 30, 2008:

    Leave:
    AirTran Airways 188
    Depart: 6:00am Newburgh, NY
    Newburgh Stewart (SWF)

    Arrive:
    8:29am Atlanta, GA
    Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson ATL (ATL)
    ---------------------------------------------------
    Depart--- Sunday, June 1, 2008:

    AirTran Airways 591
    Depart: 9:25pm
    Atlanta, GA
    Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson ATL (ATL)

    Arrive: 11:48pm
    Newburgh, NY
    Newburgh Stewart (SWF)


    I will need:

    -ride to and from the event
    -100 rounds
    -possibly a musket (either 1853 Enfield or 1861 Springfield)

    I will share all costs of the above, if necessary.

    Can anyone help? I'm in Capt. Sorchy's Federal company for some fun...

    Where is the pie??? :)

    Thanks- Johnny Lloyd

    Johnny, If you don't get this worked out let me know. I "sort of" go past the airport on the way. I had not planned on the whole day friday for the evnt. I know the Mill well and can go out pretty much anytime I want, but can understand your enthusiasm for early arrival. The possibility of bringing a horse trailer thru the ATL airport fuster-cluck could cause some interesting looks.
    Don't have a long arm, rounds could be discussed as time gets closer. I will probably carry my Smith, so didn't plan to roll any.
    Any how, It's a "fall-back" idea if nothing else works out.

        Johnny I'm sorry I can't help as I'll be coming from a whole different direction, however there's some trams that run into and out of Atlanta airport that I think may help you coordinate a ride with the feller that was hauling a horse trailer. Good luck.

          Bro. Lloyd,

          Bro. Kiev and I will pick you up, and return you to the airport.

          Give me a call, and we'll talk details, as well as a Rifle and rounds.

                Johnny,

                If Kiev gets busy I'm his back up. I am taking off the Friday before the event so we've got you covered to and from the Airport. :)

                  Herb-

                  Thanks so much, Herb. I'll let you know.

                  I now feel bad dancing on top of your quarters area in the Sibley while I was less-than-sober at W64.

                  Pardon me there... :p:D

                  joke...

                  Gotta love this hobby... LOL ;)

                  But really... thanks again, man.

                  See you soon in Hot-lanta -Johnny

                    If you could fly into Chattanooga instead I believe Captain Sorchy is going to have us march from there to the event.
