Thanks William for keeping us in the loop.
I have to put this contest on my bucket list fer sure!!!
I know John Simpson, but not the guy called Bub Reese. Better not let Charlie know someone is with his gal. LL~
Ah just kidding...... Tell Charlie and John that Paul Taylor from Memphis says "Howdy!" H^^
Can wait for the pictures! #^

Hello to Bub and Shirley. And even Peabody. Rumor is they exiled him from NJ for awhile. Seems he tried pumping his own gas. No idea on how even got the gas cap off.

Just heard Joe Gilbert won Profile again with the T-6 powered by a Saito 40 I did the intake on. That's 4 in a row for Joe flying the T-6.. Way to go Joe y1
-
I want to be like Joe when I grow up.... oh wait Joe has not grown up yet. LL~
Maybe that why I like him.
Why to go Joe!

Tom, ...OOPS! My Apologies to you and THE X-47 FLYERS. Just got back to N.Y. last night from a long drive, (for a young kid like me) and wanting to share some pics as soon as I walked in the door, well... the proof read was a little tired too. Sorry about the typo. Again, Thanks to ALL, had a GREAT time, enough memories to last decades, and most of all... GOD BLESS.

Hey Lynn, We were a little tired from the drive back to New York , and rushing to get pics out right away, I skipped the proof read part of the post. OOPS! I'll try not to do that again! (A little brain fade.) My apologies again.(see reply #19). I'd like to thank the people for thanking me. I'm glad you're enjoying the pics, it's really My pleasure. I know how much I enjoy seeing all of the pics everyone is posting on this forum, and so I'd just like to say Thank YOU! John
-
I saw the post, just had to pull your chain LOL,LOL
Thank again can't wait for the next one #^

Hey Lynn, Glad to hear someone's got a sense of humor! Someone mentioned our club picture at FMP this New Years Day saying we always manage to look like folk from Riker's (Rikers Island's a prison up here in N.Y.) on day passes..... I thought it was funny as heck, since I know the poster, especially when I looked at the 1st picture. I guess Kevin, (Will's son) forgot to say smile when he snapped it. I took the second one so Kevin could be in it and said "BI-SLOB" when I took it...seems like just saying it makes people smile. Thanks again to Y'all! I'm already looking forward to the next one. GOD BLESS. John

I'd like to thank the Donater of the Twister kit for the raffle. After reading Dennis Toth's post in Classic and putting the "HELP!" with his Ol' STUKA picture I finally got a minute to read my E-Mail. I was pleasantly surprised to have mail from Dennis. I was even more pleasantly surprised when I read that I had won the kit! I'd been wanting to build one (bashed) for a while now. Thank You! John

This is one mean looking machine and I like it. Don't know if it is the color scheme or the lines. H^^
-
A great contest. The Weedmans, X47 Flyers and everyone that helped put it on deserves a Big Thanks!!
The weather on Sunday was spectacular. Clear blue sunny skies and not much wind made it perfect. Since I live at the bottom of Florida I wore long johns and heavy stuff over them but the folks that live a bit farther North were in short sleeves. Did I say perfect?
-
Les,
You just have no blood! Just think of those poor guys above who swam across the cold Flushing Bay from Rikers Island. It is true that most of them live on Rikers!
I sure miss seeing those guys.
Thanks for the pictures John.

Looks like a fine bunch of stunt pilots John. y1
-
Wow What A great time had by all that attended With a total of 49 pilots in stunt and combat there must have at least 75 or more spectators at times. Thanks for all the great photos Next year we are going to offer the building for people to sleep in like at the Navy NATS me and TJ camped out in there and had A blast all weekend so all you pilots make your plans to come to the KOI NAVY Nat's next year and hang out
Thanks TOM WEEDMAN

Great idea on the camping out NATS Style , will be alot of fun
