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

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.

It's time to drop the bomb!

As I mentioned above, much of the money we raise for our charity comes from the raffle of thousands of dollars worth of amazing prizes that our sponsors provide. You can find out all about this ever-growing list of prizes and how you can have an opportunity to win by visiting the official Fly-for-Tots website at : www.flyfortots.com

But our grand prize this year tops anything ever seen! If you close your eyes and dream about what "first class" combo you'd like to fly, it would probably look like this:



You can't win it if you don't have a ticket! And, remember, 100% of the proceeds from this and the many other raffle prizes goes to the Victory Junction Gang Camp!
