----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]----Sounds good to me, Ken. Anyone who was planning to meet us at Camilla, go to Thomasville instead. (You'll notice that I've put this email back on the Flyin site where it should be, not on the Tech site.)

Syd,
Thomasville, Ga (TVI) is another good place to stop on the way down. It is about 30 miles SE of Camilla. They are building a new FBO building that may be completed by now. I stopped there coming down to Florida in June, and ended up having to spend the night due to weather. They were real nice, gave me the crew car overnight, and knew Lynn Nelson from previous visits. It's not much further South from Camilla. There are several motels in town, about 3 miles away. (Turn right when you leave the airport :-)) FBO number is 229-225-4313.
You might also think about Cairo Grady, Ga, about 25 miles S of Camilla. I haven't been there, but I understand they have a cafe. I would check on it's hours before expecting it to be open in the late afternoon or early morning. 229-377-6700 is the FBO number.
About 80 miles south of Camilla is Perry, Florida (40J) I haven't been there, but I believe there is a cafe on the field and they have 24 hour fuel. But I don't have any information that says they have a crew car, and as best as I can tell the motels are a good 2 miles distance from the airport. But Perry is about halfway between Carmilla and Crystal City. FBO number is 850-584-2823.
Just food for thought.
Ken
