David Mazer Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Who is planning on ferrying out of FL if Isaac gets worse? And, where would you be going? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1964-M20E Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 FWIW IMHO At the current time the NHC has Isaac’s track moving back eastward (sorry for those of you in the panhandle and southern AL area) as it approaches the panhandle. I’d just hangar in place unless you are on the west coast of FL in the Cross City area or in the panhandle. Most commercially built buildings are usually designed to withstand 100 to 120mph winds or possibly more. I’d most likely hangar in place even in the panhandle unless I was worried about tidal surge or other flooding. Yes you could have a tornado but then all bets are off you can have one of those in a bad line of thunderstorms as well. For you in Longwood, FL, I’d stay put or if you really wanted to move the plane I’d move the plane south east. If you were to go north you’d only be putting you plane in the path of the storm and its remnants unless you went north of Atlanta. I’ll be watching to see if it wanders back to the west. I really start thinking about moving the plane when the track centerline is between Mobile Bay, AL and Lafayette, LA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbridges Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 I hope most of you have indoor hangars. I'd be worried about flying debris hitting the plane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N601RX Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Are you at the new airport or up at Tri County? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N601RX Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 A few times, but its been a while. I just assumed you were at the new airport until you said 45 miles north. I'm guessing Tri county is a lot cheaper than the new one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker_Woodruff Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Can't move mine...all the control surfaces are off and it's stripped for paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carusoam Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Consider Chicago. It made a nice escape for three days avoiding an east coast hurricane last year... Best regards, -a- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
