Judy and I are heading out to the EastCoast  from DVT.  We are leaving Thurs am. and plan to o’nite in Branson Mo. weather permitting, Then on into Greenville NC. On Fri. We will spend the weekend with our son and daughter in law and then head to FRG on Mon. We’ve made the trip from DVT -OSH-FRG a couple of times and have a good idea of the what to see and expect on the ‘northen’ route, but with our son recently locating in NC it gives us an opportunity to make the trip a bigger loop this time.

So since the east coast is not my stomping ground I thought I’d ping this group for input. We are definitely going to make a visit to 1st Flight either by air or land. While we are there. My son also informs me that we HAVE to do some NC BarBQ while we are there.  Other than that we’d love any suggestions, particularly for fuel/rest stops & FBO’s.

For NC Barbeque (or any barbeque for that matter), you can’t do any better than the Pik N Pig, right on the airport at Carthage, NC (5NC3).  It is about 45 nm southwest of Raleigh-Durham (KRDU).  Here’s a video about it:  http://www.wral.com/news/local/video/6056117/#/vid6056117  

Note: The Pik N Pig is closed on Mondays, and they don’t take credit cards.  Cash or check only.

If you’ve never been Williamsburg, VA is a must see.  Colonial Williamsburg is a short cab ride from KJGG and the airport has a very good airport sandwich shop on the field.  Short flight from Greenville area.

Some quick suggestions:

<![if !supportLists]>-          <![endif]>Tangier Island (TGI).  Need about 3 hours to see everything.  A real step back in time and great crab cakes.

<![if !supportLists]>-          <![endif]>Ocean City (OXB).  

<![if !supportLists]>-          <![endif]>Fuel;  

<![if !supportLists]>o   <![endif]>ONX - Currituck County Regional Airport Currituck, NC

<![if !supportLists]>o   <![endif]>ECG - Elizabeth City Coast Guard Air Station/Regional Airport Elizabeth City, NC

<![if !supportLists]>o   <![endif]>XSA - Tappahannock-Essex County Airport Tappahannock, VA if you find yourself a little west of direct.

Well, Pik-n-Pig is a must - 5NC3 - Carthage.  The best in fly-in     NC-style barbecue.  Saturday's at noon is often an RV fly-in but     open for lunch and dinner all week except Mondays.

     

     I'd love to rendevous if you just share a day and time.  Now that     I'm flying.... I have a life again .... I think.

Depending on weather, you might consider southern route. Hot Springs AR 

is one potential stop. Or you can just follow I-10 to I-20 to I-30 to 

I-40 all the way to Knoxville, then aim south a bit for NC.

If you do planned route, Springfield Branson FBO is pretty good and has 

a self serve at one end of the field, IIRC. I don't know anything about 

the new Branson airport. Depending on whether you plan on non-stop or 

not, Borger, BGD is a good fuel stop...I prefer it to Dalhart, although 

Dalhart is acceptable as well.

KBBG is a brand new facility last year; new runways, ILS, etc. I used the

FBO there; rental cars are available at the terminal adjacent.

Probably need to skip Beaumont as we have rain moving into the area today (hit-n-miss) and more steady tonight and tomorrow.  Make sure you are up on your IFR for most of OK and AR Thursday.

If you decide to try the real southern route, there is cheap fuel at X35 (and someone who would take you to dinner), Cedar Key is a really nice place to visit (KCDK), I have heard great things about Amelia Island (KFHB).

Hey Deems,



Normally, I'd say stop on by Greenville, SC "come see us!" (where your original rudder pedals live now), especially if you are thinking of Spartanburg (30 mi.).  But I am currently on Ocracoke Is. on my annual surf fishing/therapy trip.  So, since you will be in Greenville, NC and not that far from Ocracoke -- "come see us"!  Give me a call on the cell (864-915-1647) a day in advance and I'll meet you at the landing strip -- nothing there but the landing strip, no gas, no transportation, no food, etc.  They just this week opened the island to visitors and they had closed the strip as well due to hurricane Irene.  If you are flying over to check out the damage to the Outer Banks (from Hatteras north) and you feel like touching down, give me a call.  I'll be here until the 24th.



Later, - Lew "not thinking about much but weather, tides, fish"

Deems;

     

     If weather pushes you around and you need an overnight in North East     Texas, I have extra rooms available here in Paris.  

     

     

     PS 

     That goes for any other RV10 ers who need an overnight.
