Jive Combat Team 2012 World Tour...

[wwwarbird]

 
 I had a very nice suprise this evening after work. Getting ready to close up shop I noticed that I had a voicemail message on my cell phone. I checked and it was none other than the infamous Howard Rush himself saying that he would soon be passing through Albert Lea, MN on his roundabout way home from the NATS. I was able to catch him before he passed through and we were able to meet at a local restaurant. We had a bite to eat and a real nice chat. I got a chance to check out the Electrodog in the flesh too, a very nice airplane.

 It was a lot of fun to finally meet Howard in person after only enjoying conversations on the forum prior to tonight. Howard was continuing on to Minneapolis yet tonight and then on to Fargo, ND for their contest this weekend.

 Better look out Fargo folks, the JCT is comin' to town!

The JCT is Fargo bound
 with a new secret weapon, the Electo-hound
The boys up north better run and hide
 Cause the JCT's bad, they're nation wide

Ah, but how do they compare to the Buttafuco Stunt Team? (favorably, perhaps?)

Were not bad and were not nation wide
  so the big shot fliers wont run and hide,
But we have more fun as you very well know
  so at the winners podium we will never show

Here is Wayne inspecting the dog.  We had a fine meal and a nice visit, but I missed the PBY.

Howard...Where do you store your toothbrush and (hopefully) clean skivvies?  Steve

[Dan McEntee]

  Howard, it's a shame you didn't get to see the PBY. I think Wayne would be the only one in the world to think of it as a stunt  model, and pull off such a nice model that flies WELL! Hope you get to view it in person some day.
   Wayne built a profile scale model of the Hughes Racer by kit bashing a SIG Goodyear racer kit. It is awesome also! Heck, everything I've seen of his is awesome!
  Type at you later,
