The latest weather report says that the speed flyers will be wet, but once again it'll be decent weather for stunt & carrier.

Hopefully it won't be torrential downpours.

The problem with electric is that once you get the smoke generator and sound system installed, the plane is too heavy.

Scott, dont forget to check the air pressure in the tires,, get an oil change, carry snacks for the trip, maybe a cooler with soft drinks,, and fill the gas  tank,,, I know its a long drive for you Scott,, make sure you rest the night before too,,

Leo,

    Planning on being there Saturday and Sunday.

    Do you know where I can park the new camper that replaces the VW ?
     I've got a new Mars, much better than last year's.

The VW was in better focus.  Be careful with this vehicle in traffic. People may have trouble seeing it, as fuzzy as it is.
