Why do you have to take them out Eric. Maybe they are worth a few favors eh mate. A bit of blackmail coming up maybe???

Hey Larry, you need to go buy a Lotto ticket mate. With luck like that you cant fail plus you now have a free airplane.

Great write-up Sam, and great job out there busting your butt all weekend! Hope the wife isn't too mad at us for stealing you for the whole weekend!!!

The event is only as good as the fun-loving & friendly folks that show up! Thanks to everyone that came! It was great to meet a bunch of people that I only knew online, and great to see some familiar faces too!

Thanks for the kind words, I'm really just the Yoko Ono around here!!

Monica

So it sounds like the event was a success.......even though attendance was lower than expected due to predicted winds.


Note to everyone out there: Weatherman/women don't know jack!!!!!!



And thanks again PAU boys for bringing the planes all the way from the "Great White North".......see I know my Mckenzie brother lingo....ehhh!

Showtime, The Flying Painter, his son Chase, and Mithrandir were the ones that went out to help locate the plane on Friday when it happened. They were unsuccessful.

I wish I could have helped........in a way I did. I was responsible for their safety from the flightline. I had the cell numbers, ensured they had water and they had my cell. Not the same as ruining a pair of shoes but such is the life of the CD of the event!

I'm just glad Warren got ahold of the police and we were able to retrieve Joey's plane........and even better.....minimal damage.

Now lets see his nerves at this field again in Mid Oct
