Yeah, Yeah, Yeah,  I've heard that stuff before !  You bring your old stuff and smoke everybody.  I know your "D" job isn't old stuff, and, of course, you have been known to have a pretty fast jet. See you there Pal,  Sonny

With all the people you fly for, you'll probably make 40 or 50 officials Joey........your stuff on the other hand ....maybe you'll get an official or two if you can keep up with that Jet....

haha...... I have to get you back for making fun of my "wing-under" last year Joey.

See you in Muncie

Not sure about NATS week......next week, it says high 80s and T-storms in the evening.....usual Muncie weather

The last few days in Mass. have been low-mid 90s...and humid.....it sucks.....the basement workshop is nice and cool though so I'm sure I'll get my planes ready to go in time.

Global warming has taken over Minnesota.  The last couple of weeks it's been in the 80's & 90's and verry little rain.  It must be all the casino we have, and the weather is following them. j1 j1 j1

I'd love to build a fast jet too but I'm pretty sure it would pull my 150 lb @$$ all over the circle....oh well

Hopefully I'll have that sport jet built for dayton....I wanted to make one for the nats but I just havent had the time....that's ok...i need to focus on getting some more performance out of the planes I already have built....my dad and I will be testing engines all next week......I'm shooting for the senior Form .40 record

Joey,

I plan to be there for 1/2A Profile Proto. I will also fly carrier and this year I am demonstrating an electric carrier plane (it flies pretty good too, its a 15 sized carrier plane converted to electric, does the 70 mph speed limit for 15 carrier without too much drama).

I just finished the container for bringing the 1/2 A plane with me on the airline (I ship the others). Since I am arriving late Sunday night I had to make sure the little plane was with me. I just hope that TSA doesn't screw it up when they inpsect it.

See you there.

Bob
