So what was the FFAA member count at Nall? Glad you all made it back safely (less the Hawaiian's camera! ) Must have been a good group! We sure know how to miss em back here!


Milton Fl. Must be a military connection!?? Good luck finding a field- there ought to be one or two round there somewhere in the Pensacola suburbs.

This would be a good question for Steve Hoyt. He is from the pan handle area. You can pm him here on FG, at "shoyt1". Steve will get you headed in the right direction! Hope that helps!

[QUOTE][
I wanted to make a special mention to Rob Joyner of Competition Airframes. As i had mentioned earlier, the weather took its toll on our camp and airplanes, and my new Dalton 42% Extra 260, the hatch blew off the plane and tumbled away. Needless to say the hatch was damaged. I gave it a quick field repair so that could fly it. Our camping neighber "Smokin" called up Rob of Comp Airframes, who was bringing Matt a 40% Extra 300 ML Edition (in the bones). We caught Rob in time so that he could bring a Extra 260 kit to Joe Nall. Not only did he bring it, he framed it up and built it in the pitts at Joe Nall!!!. X-rated said he would finish it off and it would be ready and finished in time for TC3D!

Rob is an excellant builder and nice guy! That was evident in the hatch he built, and the "In the bones" Extra 300 that he brought for Matt. You can reach rob at www.competitionairframes.com

Thanks Rob!
/QUOTE/

Your very welcome Rennie, it was my pleasure to build it for you and know fix the rest of the plane for you for the next big event in Riverview. It will look just like new when John and I get done with it. Rob

Someone just asked me who was the youngest pilot at Joe Nall , Unless I am wrong it was Lil" Stinker, Donnies' son Jonathan. Any other nominees?
