The last FREE give away!
« on: June 16, 2007, 12:21:38 PM »
          Over the last 4 years Black Hawk Models has offered FREE merchandise in give aways. We have given away a half dozen kits and an equal number of engines totaling over $500 in merchandise with over $800 in advertising. Our total out lay has been about $1300 with a return of 2 to 6 entries per contest. We currently have two give aways in progress, when they are done there will be no more.
4th of July give away FREE ENGINE, PLANE AND CONTROL HANDLE
Ok so you do not like 1/2A......give it to someone.
Well, that's all.

Hey Larry is it to late to enter?  I know, it depends on how fast the mailman gets there.  Truthfully, when I first heard of the PeeWee Pup giveaway I got all excited.  "FREE PLANE" means a lot to me, but also I've wanted one of those OK .049A engines for a long time.  As time passed I figured that you'd be swamped with entries.  Realizing that it was a great beginner package and thinking that I would have little chance of winning anyway I never entered.  I guess I hoped some newcomer to 1/2a might get a good start.  If there is really little interest, I may rethink the situation and see if I can scramble an entry form into the mail.

Larry,

I sent off my entry yesterday. Like Wayne, I had assumed you were swamped with entries and figured it should go to a new flyer.

It would be a good opportunity to give to a new flyer and teach him/her how to build and fly.

I hope you get a good response this time from us older guys.

Perhaps a few notes from previous winners as to the ultimate outcome of the planes would be interesting.

Dropped an entry in the mail just now. The boy next door could use a hobby and this would be perfect. It also wouldn't hurt my chances of getting a date with the hot grandmother!
If I don't win I'll have to buy one.
