Just an update, I was unable to fly the jet yesterday so the wait continues. Upon arrival at the site the runway was extremely narrow, I dont know how they heck you would land a real plan there. I barely managed to get my 46% bipe back on the ground, the runway was so narrow the wings on my plane almost touched edge of the runway on both side. I decided not to risk it, plus there were power lines and trees that didnt show up in the imagery I looked at prior to going. So maybe MS Jets if I can make it, I replaced the wheels on my trailer in prep for the road trip and found my wheel bearings completely destroyed. I am worried now if I can even make MS Jets I cant seem to find the right bearings locally yet.... Pretty flustrated with all problems coming up in prep for the flying season Stay tuned
