K08: Interstate Bingo Challenge Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Trekkie79: The KCI Challenge Trail was placed over 10 years ago and It’s been a good run but with all the construction and changes to the area going on it’s time for these to go. Thanks to everyone who found them. I know some of the challenges challenged a few people, but hopefully it also brought some smiles as they remembered some of the great times they had caching. I have enjoyed reading the logs over of all the great adventures.

If you have already signed the log and not yet claimed the find feel free to claim the it once you complete the challenge.

Thanks for the memories
Trekkie

Geocache Description:

<<The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. To find the true coords solve the simple puzzle below. This is a log only (BYOP).>>
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard.  Fasten your GPSr strap, place your logging device in the full solving position and prepare for takeoff on the KCI Geocache Challenge Express once again.


The log can be signed prior to meeting the challenge requirements, but the challenge cannot be claimed as a find until all requirements are met.  Please report any container issues to the CO for repair.  Any signatures on unauthorized replacement containers will be deleted by the CO.  The average D/T rating for these caches is 1.5/1.5. The higher rating takes into consideration the requirements for meeting these challenges.  Please be aware of the approach of other incoming flights on your taxiway and pull safely to the side to avoid collisions (as an added caution on this taxiway I recommend stopping along north side). Have fun and thanks for flying KCI! 

And now for the challenge:   Find a cache within 1 mile of each of the Interstates to complete a Bingo for a total of 6.  As a bonus this cache may be signed a second time for a complete Blackout of all 36 squares.
