I don't have a clue yet,

I'm opening all the stuff at the event Saturday morning.
or with help Friday at the field.

I know we have a futaba fast system, co-axil heli's and a LOT of boxes
I'm not even sure we can even give all this stuff away.
But I know I'm going to have fun trying..............

Yea I'll say.

Yep, I've been a beggin!
If I added the days of not working to do most of this, even I would be shocked at the total. I'll even admit I went over board.
I'm having 15 or so calls a day from people that seen the Dallas Morning News and the Grand Prairie Paper. Along with all the advertizing everywhere I put out, and guys I meen I PUT OUT.
So I'll be supprized if we can park everyone.
Pilots and venders better come early " no joke"

Lots of calls and lots of boxes.

And just think, the sponsors were the easy part.
It was the city that needed the 4 or 5 meetings every couple of months.

Although I won't be starting this in November, like I did this time
I had to call most of them twice and even re-email and re-fax some.

But it's almost all over but the crying now and I know everyone will have fun and want to come back with some twinking on a few things I'm sure.

Anthony,

Your right!

But thank goodness for us it's up by the red river
and not in the DFW area at all.
Far North Texas and it won't be anywhere near us.
And winds of 4 to 8 mph

Weather.com is so wrong almost 100% of the time, I have kept a very close eye on that site and also usairnet.com for many years for events and nothing compaires to what really happened as usairnet.com predicts in it's forcast

Heres the link for the DFW area http://usairnet.com/cgi-bin/launch/...it=Get+Forecast

Heres the start page http://usairnet.com


You had me scared for a couple of seconds.

I will be their but I am not going to fly. I don't think anyone would be interested in watching me hover around and do few loops and rolls.

No bring what you got and fly.... I fly like a Girl Scout Brownie so you will be fine.

I will be there tomorrow around 11AM. Anyone got some shade I can use?

Here are a few quick shots from today's events. I have over 1500 photos to go throw, so these are just a quick selection.

The T-Rex's were out in full force and seemed to multiply as the day progressed.



One of the demo teams strutting their stuff.






Even the pros have problems sometimes...


Care Flight to the rescue!!!




Like I said, the T-Rex's just seemed to multiply.


Even the planes thought they were helis today.


Making sure the any grass on the runway is clipped short.


Care Flight's departure.


The heli's seemed to spend more time upside down than right side up today.


Though they spent a fair amount of time vertical too.


Nitro drag races of the helicopter kind!
