Soggy but warm...

Pilots!

The water level at Corona has not receded as promised, and we are left with a lagoon here at Corona Airport.



Armed with the 1,000 feet of usable non-slimy tarmac, we successfully evacuated all but one of our aircraft (sorry 11N!) to Chino, at the home of our friends at Threshold aviation and DPE Mark D.

We anticipate conducting flights based from CNO, primarily for dual training. Our CFIs have the keys and are conducting operations -- if you've been sidelined without reason, please call a CFI and arrange things.

Unfortunately, solo/renter pilots -- because we have no office support at Chino, we don't want to saddle Threshold with administrata -- please call the office for bookings, and we will arrange it for you.

Consider the schedule "invalid" for Chino flights. We only anticipate this situation existing for a week, two max. :)

We are grateful to Threshold providing us a dry spot to fly out of, please be kind to their facilties and personnel -- but definitely poke your head into the hangar and ogle Mark's collection of L29 fighter trainer jets. Hubba hubba!

More as I know it!
