Okay guys, we're loading up and getting ready for Tucson. My thought is to have a Flying Giants get together at the field and get to know each other. Any thoughts?

I will be there the tuesday evening of the week of the contest, until sunday afternoon. Some other friends and I are planning of doing a ton of flying of our own at nearby fields in the surrounding area. It would be awesome if we could all plan a little impromptu getogether of our own!
I don't know if we are staying at the Red Roof or where yet during the week, but I am supposed to have a 5th wheel rolling in Friday night to stay at Timpca
