Chris,
Best part is don't have individuals that don't care about the giants or throw their radios and starters just because you want to take a picture!

I don't think you have to worry about sleeping, I am not sure I'll be getting much of that during the event so why should you.

Scot, the airport will be open, there isn't much going on but your boss can land his plane.

Airworks, lower is ok but no flipping and no smoking, I am not sure that will be good
No way Tikka is sleeping in my plane he is a big dude, maybe he can only sit in it for a little bit

After a couple of weeks thinking that I wasn't going to be able to make it this year, I sat and had a talk with my boss yesterday about a lot of issues at work. She called me today and told me I will be getting the time off. I am planning on driving out. It is going to be one hell of a drive. Mapquest is showing over 1000 miles and 17 hours on the road. I should be getting to the field early Friday morning and leaving Sunday afternoon. As long as I don't totally destroy the Extra before then (pulled the gear plate out today), I will have it with me. I may also have the spoiler finished an in tow.

'Sagittarius, we has arrived. Prepare to disembark, Get the incense goin' and the sitar out We gonna camp in the city park, man.'

Snap get those massage girls warmed up, I'm going to need one after the drive.
