So what is the goal for this FFT?? 25,000???
What is the policy on donating stuff to the "dollar" raffle??

The policy is: "If it's new, bring it on!" That's thoughtful. Thanks for supporting us, Wes.

And tell Hannah that we'll get a pic of her with Rob'utz biplane.

Anything that anyone wants to donate to the event will be graciously accepted. Just send me an e-mail letting me know what you want to contribute and I will add you to the list of sponsors and get all of the info put on the website.

Yesiree! I think we have the goal set to raise $20,000 for the Victory Junction Gang, but I have a feeling we will blow by that!

I made sure I wasn't on call that weekend, so I plan to be there for both days. After talking with Larry and making sure he still needed it, I plan to bring my Big Boy to use it as a candy bomber. I understand another candy drop plane is in the works, so the more, the merrier!

::edit::This is Chris (scalefreak) accidentally still logged in under my brothers login:::edit:::

Awesome! The new RDRC candy dropper is well under way now....a Hobby Lobby 12 Foot Telemaster. It'll haul about 10 pounds of candy. I'm going to build a 3 partition drop unit inside the fuse, so we can drop candy over a broader range and at the looks of it, we'll need all the candy bombers up in the air we can get this year. It's gonna' be massive!

FFT website test.... please have a look at flyfortots.com, and see if thinks look "right" to y'all. One of the guys mentioned the header looked compressed over to the LH side of the page on their browser. If you see formatting issues, please tell us what browser you're using (Firefox, IE, etc) and what your monitor resolution is. We've been testing it on several computers/resolutions here, and can't find the problem.

Thanks!
Dave

Sounds good Chris, can't wait to see it! I'm going to expliore the possibility of adding a 2nd drop box to my plane and installing it with a y-harness so they both open at the same time. I'll be putting some test flights on the plane to make sure it can lift that extra weight.
