Flyboys is on the Goat Wall.  It is listed as 18 pitches, but we usually link pitches and there are a few scramble pitches, so it can be done in as little as 10 to 12, especially with at 70m rope.

We will meet at the Mazama store early to get a jump start.  You should be a confident 5.9 leader for this one, there are a couple of crux pitches.  One feels more like 10a sport.  The other is an acrobatic chimney.   I have done this route 5 or 6 times so i'm pretty familiar with it if you have questions.

I'm trying to keep the party size small because it is a popular route.
