John,
Nice Tcraft and website. Are you on the airstrip called "Cherokee"? Thats just south of Cook airfield. Do you know Chuck Gantzer, Pietenpol pilot? Chuck's a good friend. I will be passing through the area this weekend possibly flying in a C172 or driving depending on weather. I am taking my kids up to El Dorado Saturday. Then I will be on my way back to TX, Sunday. Perhaps I will give you a buzz or stop by.
I don't know Chuck - but may know his airplane from some of the local events. Isn't that just like an airplane nut....remember the plane but not the name.
Stop by if you have a minute (call to verify). I like to hang out at the airport after church. We have a few airplanes to look at.
Hi John,
How long is the strip at Cherokee? I'll be in a 160 hp C172, probably heavy on fuel. If its not hot, will need at lease 1500 ft or so. If hot, 2000.
Terry
Cherokee Strip is 2500' x 200' turf. Watch for the turbulence off buildings and trees if you have any crosswind. Here's a website that has more info on 18KS... http://www.airnav.com/airport/18KS
