AACITers -- We are just one week away from our flight to Furnace Creek, where
our altimeters will read well below zero! We have several airplanes going, and
also have a few passengers looking seats. If you’re flying a plane, and have an
extra seat, please let me know.
I also need to know how many are going, so I can make reservations (required)
for our group. If you’re flying, please let me know how many are in your plane.
