**Internet Fly-In Sept 14th + 15th**
OK guys, WreckRman2 and I are planning a fly-in for the weekend of Sept 14th and 15th at S.I.R.S club in Bloomington, Illinois.
Nothing fancy, Not a contest. No Cd's. Just a bunch of us from the forums getting together for a big BS session and maybe a little flying.
We have set up a discount rate at a hotel here in town. We are looking at maybe some raffle prizes and definately a cookout Saturday evening.
If interested send me an e-mail I can get you more details. We should have a website up soon with a map and more info soon.

We will provide more information about the Fly-In as we get it. I have put together a webpage and will post all the event information on it as the details are worked out.

I should be able to make it up to SIRS and maybe a couple other guys from Jacksonville. Keep me informed here or by email!
Only thing that might keep me away will be kids sporting events??

Wayne,
Sounds very cool, count me in, now if we can just get that lone power line marked so there are no repeats of the "High Tension" event it'll be even better.
Let's see if the new CAP will 3D at this one!
I'll pass the word around up in this neck of the woods if you'd like.
Back to the building board...!

AMA? IMAA?
People are asking if it is AMA required, (which I have said "probably") and or IMAA required. Not everyone here in Jacksonville are IMAA, if AMA only might interest some more from here. Either way I should be there at least one of the days if not both!
Might even have my PITTS done by then, and maybe not!?

Internet Fly in Sept. 14, 15th
Hey Wayne,
So what's the pilot count at this point? Have you mentioned anything to the Team JR crew down in Champaign? I wonder if McConville is in town that weekend?
On a non related note guess who just got 3 Matchboxes for his new Cap 232?? These are FUN!
See ya!

That was Danny Snyder. I will see if he can make it.
The Edge is really, really nice! I have about ten flights on it so far and I havnt seen a bad habit yet.
Heres a harrier pic of it from the other day.
