Postby Chris McKeon » Sat Jun 18, 2022 5:40 pm

Ok here is what I would like to know: For Your inland sites down there in San Diego. Can anybody? would Anyone please give Me the GPS numbers for each of Your inland Launch sites down there in San Diego? If I this correct You Guys have Laguna, Black Mountain, Little Black, horse canyon, and Blossom Valley. If I either have one of these Sites incorrect, or if there are other sites. Would Someone please list for Me the GPS Numbers for each of the Sites Launches.

Thanks Guys.

{SOME DAY, ONE DAY}


Ok Bob, great thanks for the Coordinates.

Also I believe that there are two More Sites that I want the GPS Coordinates for; Palomar, and Black Mountain. Note; Black Mountain is not Little Black Mountain.

You know Bob when I am ONCE AGAIN Flying My Predator again. I want To Come down to San Diego and then launch from one of Your inland Sites, then Fly to another inland site. Where I will land on Launch, re-Launch. Fly to another site. once again top-land. I will do this I believe like 5 or six times until I have flown all of Your Sites in one Day.

John told that this type of Flying a Sky-Tour of all Your sites would be impossible. Boy this sounds like something that I should have a crack at.

I've flown Palomar Mountain at least once, but it was maybe a decade ago. Here's a link.

I've never flown what we sometimes call "Big Black", but I was also up there about a decade ago. I don't remember where it was.

There's nothing wrong with dreaming about what you might do, but don't let it distract you too much from what you can do.
