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.

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

You can check the web but the one I was looking at was a Travel Trailer, it had a shower, toilet and two beds but it ended up being $1500 for 4 days! after all of the taxes and clean out etc was done. ouch! The motor home were big bucks!

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.

There is electric available at the airport, I am not sure if it's accessible to us, I will have a generator running all day long to charge my stuff , you're welcome to use it, but why not using a car battery, I am sure we can figure something out, don't worry.

haha i wish that was me but i can't take the credit for that 1! The plane belonged to Ken donnelly Jr(3dflyingking here on the giants) at the time and then he fixed it and sold it to me. HOpefully i don't have to suffer the same thing as him. But if your wondering whether i will dip the tail into the pool then yes i will! I must live up to the legacy! This year kenny aka 3dflyingking will be there! We're all going as a group (LONG ISLAND FLYING EAGLES SUNDAY CREW) consists of 3dflyingking, flyflybob, Dave ciemielewski, Al, Charlie and then me and my dad! I can tell you that you can be expecting big things from us! Yes you will be impressed! Look forward to seeing you all again in a matter of weeks woohoo! Take Care!
