If you flew on my airline the side of the plane would say United or US Airways, but the name of the airline was Colgan Air.

I'm planing on heading out to the TREIA meeting later this month, and am going to try to go to the deal-makers meeting this evening, so maybe I'll see some of y'all there!

I am currently in escrow with a 2000sqft 5bds 3ba property out of big bear lake that I am planing on making a short term rental.

Send them a email tonight letting them know you do not need the husband present and you will be proceeding as planed, contractors are scheduled and you will be there at 11 as planned.

Get in the car or plane, go to the property with your own boots on the ground and mitigate the situation.

A plane ticket from CA to just about anywhere is maybe $400.

And I'm pretty sure he got on a plane from California and got there to deal with most of it himself, it was a big enough issue, obviously, that it was worth it to him to be there on the ground dealing with the aftermath himself. 

About Contracts (I like to look at concepts like a funnel - there's a 30,000 foot view of the whole process, then the view gets more narrow as we go down - maybe my take on things will help put the pieces together)....Ever build model cars/boats/planes as a kid?

The market here is about to explode as soon as planes start flying and bringing people back, so it could be a very lucrative time, but it is an investment, so weigh those risks against other things you are considering.

We were planing on doing the same but decided much to rough a city/ area .Good luck
