Hey, anyone in Colorado looking to drive out and want to carpool?

Alternatively, I'll be driving either I-70 or I-80, and I can join or pickup someone on the way (share gas cost and drive time). That's Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, or Iowa that could be along my way. Respond here or send PM if interested! Thanks!

Much as I'd like to help, a buddy and I are planning to pack our luggage, field boxes, miscellaneous supplies, and several FT planes into my MINI Cooper. Wish us luck. I guess we could tie somebody onto the fender...

Great idea, by the way! Hopefully some folks will be able to make FT that couldn't otherwise.

DSM to Flightfest

Fly private with me: free. I'm flying up for the event and would love to pick some people up. I'm in Southern Iowa so it's not out of the way

Hey epicstrikard, does your offer of transportation still stand? My family and I are still trying to plan our trip from DSM to flitefest. I am an Air Traffic Controller in Des Moines, and hope I am able to bring all my rc gear.

Hi Knightshots - I am leaving from DSM as well. Are you driving all the way in one shot or stopping midway? I am trying to figure out a good spot to break up the drive and before I invest too much time looking, I saw you were possibly making the same trip and may be a bit ahead of me planning wise :)

I would like to make it there in one day. Not sure if that is going to happen since renting a van at noon vs 8am saved me 100 bucks. So I am still trying to figure out if I can set up camp on Thursday night, or if we will need to get a hotel on Thursday night.

From the looks of it, from DSM to the event should be about 11-12 hours.

Most walmarts and casinos will let you park your RV for one night no problem. I went all the way to Yellowstone once donig just that.
