I dont know about specific fields that have a lot of IMAC activity but, you'll be pretty much centered in the NC region.
We have a lot of events each year and the group of people that fly in the NC are second to none.

Your move to IN will be a good thing if your into IMAC.

Yea I figured Ohio would be a hot bed. I moved from there in '99 haven't been the same. Flown about 30% of what I use to. Hope things work out for us that is for sure.
Thanks for the input.

we will be looking at housing in the next couple of months and this will be one of my priorities. Any help would be appreciated..
Wow, I have moved around a lot but I was never able to make this a priority for my new location. That's great and good luck finding the right spot!

Scott, where in Indiana will you be moving? I'm in Indy and we've got a pretty dedicated group here. Wherever you move, I'm looking forward to hooking up with you.

Scott,

Depending upon where in Indiana you move, you may be close to the Cincinnati area. Will Berninger and I fly LOTS of IMAC on the very western border of Ohio (Harrison, OH to be exact). Will lives in Lawrenceburg and is extremely active. There are a few dedicated pilots in the Terre Haute area, too.

Give me a shout if I can help in any way.

Ken

It will be Indy if things work out. We were thinking about the southwest area but are not sure yet. My wife will work out of that area and I will fly out of the airport to go to work (commuters). We will know more by the end of the month..
Flying fields are a priority for me (not wife) so I keep them in mind when looking. I grew up flying these blasted things and can't go to long without them. It becomes a stress releiver for me, weather in the basement building or at the field flying.

Tim it would great to meet up.

Ken, I use to go the the flyin's around the S.W. border of Ohio, Blue Chip squadron (?) or something of the sorts.

Scott,
Who do you fly for?

I did my jail term at Trans States back in the 90's.

I may get parolled from XJET, we are in transition and it depends on the outcome. Unfortunatly I don't think I can get anywhere from there since this was a career change that started in '99 and isn't going anywhere fast.

ERJs 135's and 145's..I only started about 18mths ago so upgrades for me haven't happend yet. Being middle-aged doesn't help for the timeline either. We will see where things go, I am just keeping my options open. Lucky for me my wife has a good carreer and unless something happens there, we should be ok.
