Kevin
Kevin, your in for the best flying weekend of your life!
you are going to LOVE every minute of it, no doubt. Bring all the planes that you have,
even the foam! I'm not sure if there will be a size requirement or not...
it used to be that your plane had to be at least an 80" wingspan to fly, but last year
there were smaller planes buzzing around too, so the rules may have changed.
dont quote me on that though. maybe someone with a little more solid info could step up?
and about the camping, i'm only about 40 min from orchard farm, but i still camp out
because I dont like to drive after i've.........well.....you know....."partaken in my cold
beverage of choice....." yeah, that sounds good....;-)

I miss my motor home Having it back would certainly make it a lot easier to do these road trips.

Motor Home? Shoot all you need is a Suburban, house window AC unit, and a generator. Put window unit in the window of the Burb, and bingo you have a redneck motor home. For some reason this reminds me of something from last year.
