• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Carmen jet?

I'm going to do this small trip with a little twist ... Reverse the process of showing the ride after the ride ....I'll show the reason for the ride before the ride, make the ride, and then report the results ...

This pic is from goggle maps ... It looks real enough and to its left, there looks like a possible air strip for a possible landing of such an aircraft ... One of the scenes from 'Romancing the Stone' comes to mind here ...

Not sure why a jet would be parked at this location but I'm gonna go find out ..It is only a few miles from me and I know the area ~well ... I hear some thunder from the north where I'll be heading so I'm taking the gore-text coat ...

I use google maps as much as possible to find trails and roads that cross my AO and the island..
 
Maybe it is best not to start a report till finished ...

I could not find the plane :( ... I was in the right area I think but the terrain would not support a plane landing there as what looked like a landing strip is on a mountain side ... The plane its' self would be sitting well down a steep incline and in a big valley ..

Is it possible that that plane is actually several hundred feet off the ground and flying at the moment the photo was snapped?
