Is there any sort of flyer out there for this event?
BBQ Saturday?
Spectators free admission?
Cost for a food ticket for non-flyers?
Good Flyin' everyday?

Yes there was a flyer for this event in the AMA magazine in Andy Argenio's section. I believe that Snap said that spectators are free. And there is ALWAYS "good flying" everyday at a huckfest! Hope that helps! See you there!

I'm staying wherever Elie is staying. Not sure where that is, maybe on the grass field?? I just wonder, what should I bring of clothes? I need to start packing my bags soon, so it would be nice to know. Don't want to bring too much. Need space for all the things I'm gonna buy

Very nice work but you might want to touch up the "H" on the last one a bit.......looks like it could be mistaken for another letter......

Airworks that's some pretty creative work.
I agree that the H could be mistaken for a F unless that's what the after hours party is going to be called with those "Smooth Rides" in attendance.:Banane20:


Elie what do you think?
