While I have never been to the Danville SWAP I WAS planning on going till my wife told me I was stuck taking the kids to a friends daughter's birthday party at 10:00 am on Satruday. I mean what find of people have a birthday party at 10am[] I was hoping to score some parts too!!! I hope it goes well for you.

TIm

Bob, et al,

Normally I'd be chomping at the bit to go but my wife just gave me a ride in a B-17 Saturday morning in Burlington - as an early Christmas present! Capital WOO capital HOO!!! I'll have to take her out to dinner or something.

Bob.

I'm planning on going. I went last year and got some pretty good bargains.... so... I'll be around to help you w/your stuff if you need any..... It is a very nice "antique" kind of feeling to the old train station.....

Raymond BUZZED my house today ya'll,, I didnt think the Burlington airport was big enough for that, but sure enough from about 08:00 up till about 5:30 this evening the bombers were buzzing, fairly low too! neighbors were coming outa their houses to see,,,I had to work over a couple hours this morning so it would've been like 11:00 before I couldve gotten to the swap meet ,plus I was fighting off the sandman so, I didnt make it, hope everyone made out ok,

I bet your ride was a blast Raymond....Rog

Not much going on there today. Very slow. I did pick up a Black Widow and a yet to be identified .049 diesel engine from England. It was truely a buyers meet. I saw 2 OS 25 SF for $25.00 I almost got for a future project. Brian (Fireman) scored big time with a NIB OS 40 four stroke. I saw some 1/2A stuff sold but it was not a good day if you were selling.

Hey guys, I am from Jackson, Mississippi. I'll be in Danville, VA soon and wonder if there are any clubs there or very close by.

I'm not familiar with the area yet but any response is greatly appreciated. Please list any websites also.

Thanks,
Derrick (DTB)

Yes this is an old thread, but thanks for the reply flyinrog.

I will be visiting this time, but plan on moving in the future.
