This is great, Donnie! So all the guys who will jump in if there will be planes available will have the opportunity to do so with plenty of T-28' for sale in the vendors area.

Everyone make sure you indicate your situation in the poll above so that we can get a good idea of the total head count and how the freqs. are going to work out.

OK, I'm in too. Went to a local hobby shop and told them what was going on. Got an awesome deal on one! Hopefully it will make it back home too!

All you guys buying PNPs there at the meet, dont forget to bring a receiver! Im sure many of the vendors will have some for sale,but be prepared!

My wife is so excited about all of this. She took part in the all up event with 19 of them, and said it was a rush! So the Lewis's will be on the flight line with TWO!

We have 4 or 5 of these things at our house that we have beat the heck out of. If I can putt enough pieces together we'll try to bring 2. If not, should be able to get 1 patched and pieced together.

If any of you guys want a guaranteed T-28, give ERC a call and ask for my Brother, Brandon, or I and we will get some ready for Nall. Show special I'll be headed down Tuesday evening.

Guys, if we are really going to make it to 100 (or even 40) T-28's in the air at once, we have a way to go, according to the totals in the poll above. So far, it only shows 20 committed and 7 planning to buy on site. That's about a third of the way to the "ultimate" goal.

If you haven't indicated your situation yet, please take a second to vote.

Just a ? here..... How many actual channels are there in the 2.4ghz band? Is there enough to actually get 100 tx and rx to connect at one time??

I dunno the answer myself, but sure am curious to know if someone else does.
