Jackson, TN (or Humboldt) would be a good centrally located place to meet up. All we'd need to do is convince Steve Bray to haul us all to lunch. :o) Was also thinking Corinth, MS (would need to reserve the crew car) or Holly Springs, MS (steak joint within walking distance) would be good places to try to meet up for lunch.
I flew into Andrews NC in 1979 in a non-electric open cockpit biplane. Was so lost in the east coast haze trying to navigate with a paper map and a broken compass I wasn't even sure what state I had landed in. Had to go to the pay phone and check the phone book to figure out where I was. :o)

Sorry, that was meant for Larry Flesner. We were kicking around
somewhere we might fly some weekend, and I replied to the wrong email.
Speaking of meeting KR folks, Robert Pesak, Mike Sylvester, and I flew
into Andrews, NC to visit KRnetter Randy Bryant so he could try on a KR
to see if it'd fit him. That was a real blast, with great BBQ lunch,
and a small taste of interesting "mountain" flying (don't laugh, Jeff
Scott). We need to do more of that kind of thing, but the cold and
often windy weather is not the best time for it. My biggest fear is
going down in the woods somewhere and freezing to death! I do carry
some cold weather gear, but that's only good for so long. I know....if
I were flying behind a Continental I wouldn't be nearly so concerned,
but this is a VW, and I'm rightfully nervous....
