The field opens for trim flights at 8:00 on Saturday and 9:00 on Sunday.
It will also be available until dark on Friday provided a member has the gate open. If you plan to get out that soon let us know. I'll try to take off Friday to get some last minute flying in myself.
I've been grounded for the last 5 months so I'll be looking for some makeup on this one.

I just completed the count on expected pilots. We are at 26 pilots so far. It looks to be the biggest event of the year. Everyone try to let us know who is coming so we can roll enough streamers and make enough burgers.[:D]
Gary is anybody else gonna make it from Livermore?
Andy is anbody else gonna make it from Exeter?
Bob is anybody else gonna make the long haul?

Thats bad news Gary but to be understood for sure. It's a long haul for you anyway. Too bad we shifted to a week later. We will fix that for next year. I was looking forward to seeing you run some SSC with the new Mig. Maybe next time. We are still planning on about 28 pilots so it will be a real barn burner. Sorry you have to miss it.

<br />At this time the plan is to leave this Wed at 4am est and drive for about 14 hrs. Repeat on Thursday and do what is left on Friday. I will have my cell with me. 419 234 6210. Hope to get to the field in time for checking equipment and test flights.

Bob,
The questions have been coming up about who will be making contact with you to insure that you are all comfortable and have everything you need for you visit. One of us will be contacting you next week and helping you get settled and ready for the event. What hotel are you planning to stay at? We will decide who is closest and can help most. We will likely have a couple get togethers during the weekend to share war stories, repair planes, etc. You will be invited to join us in our activities. Just think you will be able to make up all the tall tales you want to about your combat exploits and we won't be able to verify any of it. Maybe you can even rehearse on the long drive out.[:D]
Please let us know just what you need if anything. We are here to help make sure you have fun considering you are making the LONG haul.
