I am working on a waste to electric power project. That is take the garbage burn it and make electric power. Maybe reduce your island energy bill and get rid of the 10,000 tons a day trash. The landfills are being closed in 6 years so where is teh trash going to go?

Well I'll have to check with my wife, but we can plan something out. BTW there's going to be a Fly-in on Sturday (26th) at the field. If you arrive early in the afternoon, drop by and say hi.

By the way in the E-mail that I send you is my PCS (Cell) number.

My biggest plane is a cub about the size of the one that used to be at the field. Only electric with a 60 electric and Lith Mag batteries. I will tell you about our house fire when I see you. LIPo started it. 1/2 a million in damage. All is OK now but it t ook 6 months to rebuild. I lost a lot of planes in it too.

Hey that sounds good, if you want to open a Branch of your company here, let me know. I wouldn't mind a nice executive position. I'm very eager to get rid of the Oncall here at work. I'm getting old to be doing Oncalls.

They may but it is lo tech you never know. I am also working on a few other PR projects. not bad for semi retirement. I get to play with my planes. I also built a full scale Robinson r22 heli sim cockpit one week end. I am thinking of going into the sim business. I have 2 distributorship's already in the bag. one for gauges that work with microsoft flite sim and the other that does an f16 complete cockpit with heads up full size. Could be fun. Also I am the VP of our large local club here. Well happy getting married. Oh also Josh had a kid my grandson. He can fly 2 channels so far at 2 years old. I figure next year for the 4 chan

Hey Howard,

I been flying there since summer of 2002. I remember you would fly a raptor on those training gears at the other side of the field. Hermidas still flies a big yellow plane that you built. We named it 'Bananin'. The club has grown lately. All the locals still fly (Henry, Hermidas, Tony, Gregory, Elias, Tato) and we have a couple new members from the IMAC scene.

Here's some pics of me last week having fun over there, as well as a vid that me and a friend put together for fun.
