[Wing] [Fwd: Monday Air Convoy to Nelson?]

[Jaye and Scott Jackson]

Just got in from flying all afternoon-six legs around the Island.
Tired, but with The Grin on my face.
Am  free, but have blown my fuel budget for this pay period. Anybody want to
help me out, I have a seat available?
Scott
How do you pay for fuel in Nelson on a holiday?
