Are those refueling probes on the front? Is that a new twist on yours and Larry's refueling by pulling the can around with the plane?

Yep, those are "air data probes" that provide at least airspeed, angle-of-attack, and sidelsip angle.

It's big alright but as Jason said, only a small percentage of what the full-scale design would represent!

Cool stuff, huh?

OK folks. The fly-in season is jusssssssst about over. This weekend ( Nov 7th and 8th) we have Vanceboro, Lumberton, and Danville. After that only a War bird meet remains being held in Fayetteville on the 24th.
I know we'll be splitting up on Saturday with a few going to Vanceboro, and the rest going to Lumberton, but who all is headed to Danville on Sunday? All three events are IMAA events.
You guys are pretty familiar with Vanceboro and Lumberton fields, but I'm not sure how many of you have flown at the Danville site. Actually, its at the Danville Regional Airport. They fly off one of the alternate runways. Perfect place for jets! hint hint

This would be our last chance in the year to get a big group together and head out, although it would be on a Sunday. So far we have a pretty good size group going. Me, Jacqui, Josh, Robert, and Wess Ryman and a couple others have said they wanna go. We'd really love to have more of you make the trek with us. Its not that far of a drive, and we know you'd have a great time. So think about it, and get you name on the list!

Thee List!

Larry
Jacqui
Josh
Robert
Wess
