Sorry Guy's, Alex and I will not be able to make the trip to the coast. Maybe next time. I'm sure we will miss out on some great flying and fellowship! I have prior obligations that will keep us from attending.

Be Safe!
See you in Goldsboro!

You killed the Big Boy?!? Dang! That was Matt's Christmas present 1.5 years ago. I doubt he will talk to you now.

Well, that plane has really been around, you were the 4th owner. Maybe you should buy another Big Boy arf.

Larry tells me that Neil (BubbaFlys2) has had some irregularities in his heartbeat in the past that he was on treatment for but it has started up again. They can't seem to get it beating right in the ususal ways so they are going to "restart it". WOW! Neil, we're all thinking about you and Shannon and will look for you to rejoin us soon!


Also, another Travelling Curcus member thinks he's got an excuse for missing the beach trip. Dave Hedrick went in for cataract surgery yesterday. I think that qualifies for a mulligan, Dave! We wish you the best in your recovery and look forward to your return, too.

Re: Fly'n with the Circus. RDRC's traveling Circus

Hey just an update on "Snow White". His surgery went great no pain so as far as he would tell me. This morning we went and got his patch taken off. It was amazing, in 24hrs they cut off his lens dropped in a new one and he is good to go. Dad was a little upset that the Eagle Lens he had requested was unavailable. He had to settle for a fish eye lens. Now everything will be in focus when he looks in a fish bowl. No all is well he just has a lot of eye drops to put in. He said he would be ready to go for Goldsboro.

That's great news, Dustin. In-an-out, nobody get's hurt!

Now let's just hear the same type of news from Neil's camp and we'll be good to go...

Yo B! Sorry the BRocka-Boy bit it. I guess those "Carolina Jumping Pines" claimed another one. They have been known to jump 20 feet to grab an airplane!

Hey, didn't I hear something about a possible ARF kinda' like it (but better) from the same designer coming from East RC? That would rule.

That sounds like atrial fibrillation, which my mom has. Stopping/starting the heart is called cardioversion, something they did to my mom 2 or 3 times. (rebooting NOW -- thump)

I expect everything will go ok, I certainly will be keeping Neal in my thoughts and prayers.

Re: Fly'n with the Circus. RDRC's traveling Circus

Here's a little update on Neil from Larry. Apparently, Shannon must have got their Sullivan starter going or something because his heart is now beating properly without the doctr's "reboot". He's still at Wake Medical Cener for observation and new drugs, but he's doing much better now.

THAT"S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!

Hurry back..........
